Sam: Listen,?Jordan,?I’m away most of June with work, and I want to show you how to cook some healthy things before I go. I can’t have you eating take out all month.

Jordan: Actually, I wouldn’t mind learning a few things in the kitchen from?you, Sam… too much pizza is not good for this body!

Sam: Alright, let’s do it! I’m making a stir fry for dinner. You want to help?

Jordan:? Yes, I do!

Sam: OK, so to start,?rinse one cup of rice. Then, put the rice in a pot and add two cups of water. Put it on high heat. When it boils, turn the heat down and cover it. You should cook it for ten minutes. Don’t cook it for too long, because you don’t want it to get too dry or burned.?

Jordan: OK.

Sam: Then, while the rice is cooking, chop your meat and veggies. Bite size pieces are good. You don’t want them too big.

Jordan: Alright. What do you use?

Sam: Any protein. Tonight I’m using chicken, but pork, beef or tofu?will work, too.?For veggies, I use onions, carrots, cauliflower,?peppers …. anything, really.

Jordan: OK, what’s next?

Sam: Once you’ve done your chopping, you need to make?the sauce. Chop a clove of garlic, then add sesame oil and soy sauce. And then you’re ready to stir fry. So, heat up the oil in the wok. ?Add the onions and meat. Give them a quick stir. After that, you throw in the rest of the vegetables. And then pour the sauce over. It’s really fast. And then, serve it over your rice.

Jordan: Wow! That’s pretty simple …. And quick.

Sam: That’s right! And healthy.
