Male Female

So you asked me to describe my favorite food, and since I'm really interested in Italian dishes, spaghetti is the food I'm going to describe for you. Actually, it is really delicious and mainly made of pasta, tomato sauce, and beef or lamb. It largely depends on your preference because sometimes it may be served with beef, and sometimes it may be served with lamb. It's all up to you. I will have spaghetti whenever I don't feel like cooking or when I find myself alone at home. I will order spaghetti from Italian restaurants in the area where I live. The food is not easy to make, to be honest, because there are some stages, beginning with frying the main ingredients, including pasta, tomato paste, and beef. Sometimes you want to add something based on your interests. For example, I add some garlic with peppercorns. Once you fry the main ingredients, it's time to add the pasta to boiling water. After doing this, it's time to mix them together and let it steam for 18 minutes. I can make it myself, but if I feel like cooking, I'm really good at it.
