Happy Breakfast

It was a very short summer, but our family seemed to be very busy. I left early in the morning to take music theory lessons at the piano store and played ball in the afternoon. I ate lunch and dinner at my parents' house. Mom recently went to work at the epidemic center, leaving early and returning late every day, and Dad was even busier without a break.

Today was a special day, mom didn't have to go to work, dad was home, and I didn't have to go to the piano store. My dad went for a run early in the morning, and my mom wanted to sleep more because she had a cold, so I got up to read and do my homework by myself. After reading for a while, I felt hungry. So I went downstairs to find something to eat. I found a bag of toast bread and thought I could make a sandwich. I had seen my mom make it many times and it didn't feel difficult, but to be on the safe side (not to waste the ingredients), I browsed the process on Baidu. I had steak, eggs, ketchup, black pepper sauce, Thai sweet chili sauce, salsa, and toast bread, all of which I had at home, except for the lettuce. So, I took five dollars of pocket money and went to the market next to my house and bought lettuce for one dollar. Now that I had all the ingredients, it was time to make the sandwich.

First, I picked two lettuce leaves, washed them, and put them in a basket to drain. Then I took out the pan and used a brush to brush a layer of vegetable oil on the pan, put it on the integrated stove, and heated it at 4. After half a minute, I cracked an egg into it and the egg solidified and bubbled. After almost 30 seconds I flipped the egg and fried it again for a while, a fragrant, golden fried egg was ready. I put it on a plate and set it aside. When the oil was hot, I put the steak in the pan and covered it with a lid so that the oil wouldn't splash out. After about two minutes of frying, I flipped the steak and cooked it for another two minutes. I turned off the heat and gently cut the steak with a knife, and the red color was no longer visible. The tender and juicy steak were cooked. After I preheated the electric pancake pan, I took a slice of toast bread and put it on a plastic cutting board, spread a layer of Thai sweet chili sauce on it and spread it evenly, then put the egg on top and spread another layer of Thai sweet chili sauce on it; put another slice of bread and spread ketchup on it, I spread the lettuce leaves gently and squeezed some salsa on it; put another slice of bread and spread black pepper sauce on it, put the steak on it I put another layer of black pepper sauce on top. Finally, add a slice of bread, and voila! A four-square "sandwich" is finished.

How can this be enough for three people? So I made another four-square "sandwich" in the same way as before. After I turned off the heat of the electric pancake pan, I put the two sandwiches into the electric pancake stall and pressed them for two minutes with the residual heat. Then I cut the two sandwiches diagonally to make four triangular sandwiches. I heated three more cups of milk in the microwave, and I put all the finished breakfast on the dining room table.

Mom was already up and Dad was back from his run. I hurriedly asked them to try the "sandwiches" I had made with my own hands, and Mom took a bite and said, "Yummy, yummy!" My dad said, "That's great! Can I have another piece?" I happily replied, "No problem." So Dad gobbled up another piece. I tried one myself and it tasted good!

It was a wonderful morning, a simple "sandwich" for a family of three around the table, and I made this happy breakfast!
