Welcome to my blog, Cooking with Dinah. Today, I want to teach you how
to prepare one of my favourite recipes, arepas.
Well, for this, you need some ingredients: one pound of flour, half a pound
of cheese, some butter, and some water, 1 tablespoon of salt, a little sugar, a frying
pan and a bowl where you can mix everything. Once you have all the ingredients,
you can start to prepare your arepas.
First, take the flour, the butter and the cheese and put them in a bowl, then
add water, sugar and salt to your liking. Mix everything with a mixer or with your
hands.
After that, put the frying pan on the stove to start heating it. When the
mixture is ready, start making the shape of the arepas and put them in the frying
pan. A few minutes later, flip the arepa to be cooked on the other side. Finally, take
them out of the frying pan.
Remember, that if you want, you can open the arepa and add other
ingredients such as chicken, ham, cheese, eggs or tuna, among others.

- What are you going to do there? - What places are you going to visit?
My class is going to the cinema on a field trip next month. We have to get
permission slips signed by our parents before we go to the movies. We are going to see a
film that tells the story from a book we read. It’s very interesting when movies are made
from books. It’s exciting to compare them. In my case, I always prefer the books because
you can use your imagination, picture the characters and the sceneries.
The teacher said we are going to arrive early to buy popcorn, sweeties and sodas.
I’m sure that all of us are going to enjoy this educational experience. Additionally, we
are going to write an essay expressing our opinion about the film, and also we are going
to have a class debate to talk about if the book and the movie were similar or not, or if
some passages of the book were omitted from the story (that always happens).
