1. 0:00Hi Pavel! Thank you for inviting me to cook.
2. 0:04Hi Olya! I'm very glad you came.
3. 0:08I'm a little nervous. I'm not very good at cooking.
4. 0:13Don't worry, everything will work out! Let's start together.
5. 0:17What are we going to cook today?
6. 0:20We will have a salad, stew, and apple pie.
7. 0:25Wow! Three dishes—that's interesting.
8. 0:29Let's start with the salad. Do you like cucumbers and tomatoes?
9. 0:34Yes, I like them very much. What else is in the salad?
10. 0:39Also onions, greens, and a little oil.
11. 0:42Okay. Should I wash the vegetables?
12. 0:46Yes, wash the tomatoes and cucumbers.
13. 0:49I'm always afraid that I'll cut them wrong.
14. 0:53Cut into slices—it's the easiest way.
15. 0:57Like this? Please show me.
16. 1:00Here, take the knife. Be careful!
17. 1:04Thank you. Now should I also cut the cucumbers?
18. 1:08Yes, cut the cucumbers and put them in a bowl.
19. 1:12I like it when the salad is fresh and crunchy.
20. 1:16Me too. Now I'll cut the onions.
21. 1:20You cut fast, I'm still learning.
22. 1:23With time, you'll get faster.
23. 1:26Should we add some greens? Which ones?
24. 1:29Parsley and dill if you want.
25. 1:33Yes, let's add dill. I like its smell.
26. 1:36Here are the greens, you can chop them finely.
27. 1:40Done. Now should I mix everything?
28. 1:44Yes, mix it and add salt.
29. 1:47How much salt do we need?
30. 1:50Half a teaspoon will be enough.
31. 1:53I added the salt. Now the oil?
32. 1:57Yes, a couple of tablespoons of sunflower oil.
33. 2:01The salad is ready! It's so bright.
34. 2:04Great! Let's put it in the fridge.
35. 2:08Shall we cook the hot dish now?
36. 2:11Yes, we will make a stew with meat and potatoes.
37. 2:16I don't often cook meat. Is it difficult?
38. 2:20No, it's simple. I'll show you.
39. 2:23What kind of meat are we using?
40. 2:26Pork. It cooks quickly and tastes good.
41. 2:30Should we cut the meat into small pieces?
42. 2:33Yes, into cubes. I'll start, and you peel the potatoes.
43. 2:38How many potatoes do we need?
44. 2:41Five will be enough for two.
45. 2:44I peeled the potatoes already. What next?
46. 2:48Cut them into small pieces.
47. 2:51Done. Now put everything in the pan?
48. 2:55First, we'll fry the meat, then add the potatoes.
49. 2:59Do we need a lot of oil for frying?
50. 3:02No, a couple of spoons is enough.
51. 3:05I often forget the order of things.
52. 3:09The main thing is not to rush, do everything calmly.
53. 3:13The meat is already frying. The smell is very delicious.
54. 3:17Now we'll add the potatoes and a little water.
55. 3:21I'll pour the water. How much do we need?
56. 3:25Half a glass so the potatoes don't burn.
57. 3:29Added water. Should I stir everything?
58. 3:33Yes, and cover with a lid for twenty minutes.
59. 3:36Do we have carrots or onions for the stew?
60. 3:41Yes, here is the carrot. Cut it into slices.
61. 3:44Done. Should I add it to the pan?
62. 3:48Yes, add the carrot and a little bay leaf.
63. 3:53I often see bay leaves in my mom's dishes.
64. 3:57It's a classic! Let's try it together.
65. 4:01Should we salt the stew?
66. 4:04Yes, a pinch of salt and a little pepper.
67. 4:07I often forget about the pepper. Thanks for reminding me.
68. 4:12You're welcome! Now let it simmer.
69. 4:16Do we have time for dessert?
70. 4:19Yes, while the stew cooks, we'll make the pie.
71. 4:23I've never baked a pie myself.
72. 4:27Today you'll learn! We'll make an apple pie.
73. 4:31What do we need for the dough?
74. 4:34Eggs, sugar, flour, and a little oil.
75. 4:38Can I crack the eggs?
76. 4:40Of course! Three eggs into the bowl.
77. 4:44I cracked the eggs. What now?
78. 4:47Add four tablespoons of sugar and whisk.
79. 4:52I like sweets, can I add a bit more sugar?
80. 4:56Yes, of course! As you like.
81. 5:00I added the sugar. What next?
82. 5:03Add a cup of flour and a little oil.
83. 5:07I mixed everything. The dough is thick.
84. 5:11Great! Now let's peel the apples.
85. 5:15How many apples do we need?
86. 5:18Two or three apples, cut into slices.
87. 5:21The apples are ready. Should we put them in the dough?
88. 5:25Yes, gently mix the apples with the dough.
89. 5:29Everything is ready. Where do we put it?
90. 5:32Pour it into the baking dish, I'll preheat the oven.
91. 5:37How long should we bake the pie?
92. 5:40About forty minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.
93. 5:44It smells delicious! I already want to try it.

97. 6:01I like black tea with lemon.
98. 6:05Great choice! I'll put the kettle on.
99. 6:09While everything is cooking, tell me how you learned to cook?
