“Nancy, try to cook for us today,” my mother called. “But Mom, I don’t know how to cook,” I said. “Today I will you to cook, ”said my mother. I didn’t know it would go, but I agree.
I saw my mother cook rice before, so I did it easily. when it came to cooking vegetables, I didn’t know how to do it. My father asked me to cut up one cabbage and make other ingredients(原料) . “Now put some garlice(大蒜)into the pot. Then, some turmeric(姜黄根粉)and put the cabbage. Don’t forget to add some salt.” My father stood next to me and told me what I should do finishing the cabbage, I cooked beef soup. , I finished cooking the meal in almost two hours. I the food to my parents. They ate it and said it was wonderful. At last, it was turn to eat the food. I thought it was terrible.
From that day on, I learnt to cook. The first experience of my own cooking was so terrible, but it taught me a great lesson. I started respecting(尊重)food, as I learnt that one had to try his best to cook it.
