A Special Recipe

Jane: What are you cooking, Tom?
Tom: It’s special Italian pasta. My grandma makes it for us every weekend. She’s Italian. Can you cook Italian food?
Jane: Actually, I don’t know a lot of recipes. How do you cook this food?
Tom: Well, first you make the sauce and put the pasta in boiling water.
Jane: How do you make the sauce?
Tom: You heat some oil in a saucepan and fry some onion. Before that, you chop a small onion. After frying the onion, you add meat and tomato sauce to it. You stir the mix for 5 minutes.
Jane: Do you add the pasta to the sauce later?
Tom: Some people like to mix the pasta with the sauce, but some like to keep them on different plates. You can eat this food with vegetables too.
Jane: I think this food is easy to cook.
Tom: Yes, it usually gets ready in half an hour.
