Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

"Please forgive me if I mess up. I'll definitely try hard to learn!" Victoria pleaded.

Holding Aunt McGowan's arm, Victoria pleaded. In that case, she must succeed in learning to cook the dish! She would pick a dish regardless, so she might as well pick one that Trevor loved. Full of fighting spirit, Victoria made up her mind.

"Okay, okay!" Aunt McGowan patted her hand and nodded while saying,

"Actually, this dish is very simple. To put it simply, it is to insert the meat stuffing into the hollow pepper, and then fry it! It is similar to making dumplings, except that you're not required to pinch the side closed. You just need to control the strength when putting the stuffing in. The methods are also very simple. You just need to choose the right pepper, marinate the meat stuffing, and prepare the sauce. Coincidentally, we have green peppers today, so I will demonstrate to you and teach you how to mix the minced meat. You can even use it to wrap the dumplings..."

"Okay! Thank you, Aunt McGowan!" Victoria uttered.

Victoria was very excited as she listened. Then, she followed Aunt McGowan and started preparing. First, she had to get herself familiar with the ingredients. That time, Aunt McGowan took out a kitchen weigh for her. Finally, she didn't have to estimate the weighs using her eyes and hands anymore. Instead, she could precisely measure with the weigh. Even though it was a bit of trouble, she enjoyed learning.

After learning for a while, only did she realize that even her technique of holding a knife was wrong all the while. No wonder every time when she cut the vegetables, it turned out so ugly and her hands would also get numb from it.

It seemed that cooking required a lot of knowledge as well.

Finally, Victoria was proud to say that, she could make a dish that was edible as well. The taste was just right, although its appearance was still a little unpleasant to the eyes.

With the guidance of Aunt McGowan, Victoria seemed to have a support system. In the next few days, whenever she had some free time, she practised cutting potatoes and carrots in the kitchen, as well as making the meat stuffings. She also prepared the condiments on her own.

In the evening, she would practice several times. At first, Aunt McGowan would keep an eye on her. Later, seeing that she could get through the whole process on her own, Aunt McGowan went on to do her own things.

Although she knew how to make the dish, Victoria knew that she still needed more practice to perfect it. The food would always have some burnt parts, or sometimes the meat would still be uncooked. Sometimes when she was in a hurry, she would be in a mess. As her birthday was approaching, she was hoping that she could make a dish that he liked on that day. Then, they could have a candlelight dinner together as well as a graceful dance.
