It's time to learn some basic cooking vocabulary. It's very important to know the correct words in order to read and follow a simple recipe. Today, we are going to learn how to cook scrambled eggs. Scrambled eggs are a simple dish that people eat in most parts of the world. 

Ingredients

Olive Oil

Put a non-stick pan on the stove over medium heat. Cover the bottom of the pan with olive oil.

Crack open three eggs into a mixing bowl. Using a fork, quickly beat the eggs in a circular motion until the yolks and the egg whites are mixed together.

When the pan is hot, pour the eggs into the pan and move them gently every ten seconds with a spatula.
