ok i cooked dinner for my family the other night,i cooked pasta=DDDD well mainly because im not really an expert in cooking and pasta is a pretty simple to cook.Well i had to go buy the stuff i need to cook the pasta,so i went to the supermarket to buy the stuff i needed,i need the pasta.i planned to make chicken pasta so i had to get some chicken meat,i also needed to get the pasta sauce,it was either i make the sauce from scratch or to buy the ready-made kind,well i went with the ready-made ones cause im not really a pro at cooking so making it from scratch may not go very well,or may not taste very nice,so to be on the safe side i bought the ready-made kind,i also had to get virgin olive oil to add to the taste,some garlic,button mushrooms and cheese to make the pasta extra tasty!!=DDDDD okay after getting all my stuff i went home and started to cook first i had to boil the pasta in water till they were nice and soft,cooked them for 6 minutes,tasted one,it was soft but still kindof hard,so i let it cook for awhile more then i tried one again ad it was nice and soft. i had another pot filled with cold water and i seperated the pasta from the hot water and placed it in the cold water to prevent it from getting soggy.so after that i drained the cold water and placed the cooked pasta in a bowl and leave it aside.I then took the chicken and i shredded it,shredding a chicken was hardwork very tedious,lol.After that i took a frying pan and put a little bit of oil into it,allowed it to heat up,while it heats up i chopped up the garlic into small pieces.After the frying pan is hot i placed my garlic into it,it started to fry immediatly i put in the shredded chicken and place it into the frying pan,did not want the grlic to be burnt,then after that i threw in my pasta and took also the button mushroom followed by the pasta sauce.Then i placed the cooked pasta into a place added some extra virgin olive oil and grated cheese.=DDDD my whole family enjoyed eating it,cooking was pretty hardwork especially the washing up.Really enjoyed cooking it and seeing my family smile while eating,was worth the hardwork=DDDLabels: lifeskill project
