Writing exercise

Original:

I have grown interests in cooking recently. As a beginner, I try to learn simple Chinese, Japanese and western cuisines through internet. Last week, I succeeded Carbonara which was not that hard as I expected. It is actually a very adaptable dish. Unlike most people would use bacon and onion, I put spare chicken breasts, corns and mushroom as replacements, and their flavor are quite matching. As for the creamy source, it’s simpler, I mixed the whipped cream, starch and a little water together, then it’s done. In the end, all I needed to do was to put the medium well spaghetti, the fried ingredients, prepared source and seasoning together and let them boil.
Cooking to me is like exploring a new world, like doing an little interesting experiment, and every time I grasp a recipe, I feel a little proud.
