Last Saturday, Marko and his wife Jelena went to a cooking class. The teacher, Chef Anton, showed them how to make fresh pasta.

First, they mixed flour and eggs in a big bowl. While Jelena was making the dough, Marko was cutting tomatoes and onions for the sauce. Suddenly, Marko cut his finger, and Chef Anton brought him a plaster.

After two hours, the pasta was ready. It didn't look perfect, but it tasted delicious. At the end of the class, everybody sat at a long table and ate together. Marko and Jelena want to cook pasta at home next weekend.
