----Formal ----

Ahmet: Yedi adet patlıcan, yarım kilo yağsız kıyma, iki adet orta boy soğan, dört demet maydanoz, bir adet domates, karabiber, tuz...

Zeynep: İki yemek kaşığı zeytinyağını unutma. Haydi başlayalım.

Ahmet: Patlıcanları ortadan ayırmadan dikey kes.

Zeynep: Tamam. Yağı önceden kızdırdım bu arada.

Ahmet: Tamam hemen atalım soğumadan da çok yağ çekmesinler.

Zeynep: Sen at, ben kıymayla soğanı kavurdum zaten.

Ahmet: Patlıcanlar oldu. İçlerini kavrulmuş kıymayla doldurup bir bardak su ekleyelim ve 200 (iki yüz) derecede fırına verelim.

Zeynep: Üstlerine sivri biber ve domates koymayı unutma.

Ahmet: Oh akşama ziyafet var. Yoğurt ve pilavla çok lezzetli olacak.

----Formal English----

Ahmet: Seven eggplants, half a kilo of minced lean meat, two medium sized onions, four bundles of parsley, one tomato, black pepper and salt...

Zeynep: Don't forget two tablespoons of olive oil. Let's start.

Ahmet: Cut the eggplants lengthwise without halving them.

Zeynep: Okay. I preheated the oil, by the way.

Ahmet: Okay, let's put them in before it gets cold or they will absorb lots of oil.

Zeynep: Put them in, I already roasted the onions and minced meat.

Ahmet: The eggplants are ready. Let's fill them with the roasted meat, add a glass of water, then put them in the oven at 200 degrees.

Zeynep: Don't forget to put pepper and tomatoes on top.

Ahmet: Oh, we'll have a feast tonight. It will be very delicious with yoghurt and pilav.
