Hi everyone,

You know I love instructions on how to do something.

Today let’s look at instructions on how to make a “packet” cake. – one we buy in a box,and just add a few things then cook.

This is the box:

and here is the back of the box,with the cooking instructions:

You might need to enlarge the photo to read the instructions:We say we ” follow” the instructions.

See what it says.”For cake you will need – 1 egg , 2/3 cup of water and 1/3 cup vegetable oil  = these are called ” ingredients”

( we say this as two thirds of a cup of water and one third of a cup of vegetable oil )

Start by heating the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and stir with a wooden spoon. What you are making is called the ” batter”

Pour the batter into a cake tin (pan) and put into the oven for 45 minutes.

How was that? Easy?

Good,you can now read instructions on how to make a cake.Practise by buying a packet cake mix and making a cake.

Follow the instructions.

Bye now,

Peter
