Listening Practice 3

Do you want to try and make jambalaya? It is a traditional dish from the American South. All you need is meat, vegetables, rice, spices, and a big pot. It is easy to make. First, cook the meat in the pot. Second, add some vegetables. I recommend onions, celery, green pepper, and tomatoes. Third, add the rice and spices. Now, put the lid on the pot and let it cook for an hour. After that, it is ready to eat. Enjoy.

Teacher: Everybody, on the bus! How was the international food market, kids? Did you all try lots of new foods?

Jeanie: Yeah, it was awesome!

Teacher: What did you get for lunch, Jeanie?

Jeanie: I tried Swiss cuisine.

Teacher: Wow! I love Swiss food! What did you have?

Jeanie: The dish was called fondue. They gave me bits of grilled food and a bowl with hot cheese. I had to dip the bits of food into the cheese and eat them!

Teacher: Oh, fondue is one of my favorites. So, who else? Sarah, what did you have?

Sarah: I went to the English restaurant and had steak pie. It’s a baked pastry filled with steak and gravy. It was served with mashed potatoes.

Teacher: Wow. That sounds delicious. Anyone else?

Kids: Me!
