So what is Christmas in July?

究竟七月份的聖誕節是怎樣的？

Well, in Australia Christmas is a pretty hot time of the year

澳洲在聖誕節時天氣十分炎熱

so you don't always feel like your traditional Christmas foods like turkey and lamb.

所以人們都不會想吃傳統聖誕節的食物 例如火雞和羊肉

But hey, in winter, they're great.

但在冬天 它們都是一道道佳餚

So let's see how our first guest Raisa goes about cooking Christmas dinner in July.

現在我們先看Raisa 如何烹調他的七月份聖誕晚餐

Raisa grew up in Bandung Indonesia with her parents and younger brother.

Raisa和她的父母與弟弟來自印尼萬隆

As a baby she was fat.

她小時候很胖

She got skinny and liked to dance and play the piano.

後來她變瘦了就喜歡上跳舞與彈琴

She had a head for numbers and she won a lot of mental arithmetic competitions.

她對數字很敏銳 並在很多數學競賽中得獎

368 plus 534 plus 235 would be 1137.

368 加534 加235 等於1137

She started a double degree in Indonesia but then won a scholarship

她開始時在印尼修讀雙學位 後來得到獎學金

to study international relations at Flinders University in South Australia.

去南澳的福林德斯大學讀國際關係

She now lives in a share house close to the University.

她現在和其他人合租 住在一間近學校的房子裡

When she need s break from study she sometimes goes into the backyard and does the hula hoop.

當她需要休息時 她有時就會去後院搖呼拉圈

I'm living off-campus. I live very near to Uni.

我不是住在校園裡 但我的住處離學校很近

I just have to walk around five minutes and then I take the loop bus.

只要步行大約五分鐘 搭上巴士

You go to the main campus. So that's really good.

就可以直接到達主校園 很方便的

Living here has definitely made me independent.

在這裏生活絕對讓我變得更獨立了

I learned how to cook here whereas before I got here I've never even touched a stove.

我在這裡學會下廚 在我來之前 我連火爐都沒用過

I've never even cooked instant noodles.

我以前連泡麵也從沒煮過

My favourite thing about being in Australia is the relaxed life, I guess.

我最喜歡澳洲令人放鬆的生活模式

Like I can really enjoy my life here. I don't feel rushed to do things.

我覺得自己可以享受更多 不用趕時間做其他事

I do realise that if you want to blend in and make new friends that you have to sort

我發現若你想融入當地 交新朋友 你就要

of put an effort to put yourself out,

試著讓自己更外向一點

like, not only wait for people to approach you but just generally smiling and everything

別只是等著別人接近 只要時常微笑

and people will approach you, so it's not really that hard I guess.

人們就會靠近 其實這並不難

I have no idea why Australians like to celebrate Christmas in July

我不太懂為什麼澳洲人喜歡在七月慶祝聖誕節

actually and I'm still wondering why also.

其實到現在也還是不懂

Hi, how are you?

嗨 你好嗎

I'm fine thank you.

我很好 謝謝

So what are we planning tonight?

我們今晚有什麼計畫

Is it the reverse Christmas thing?

是關於那相反的聖誕節嗎

Yes, Christmas in July.

是的 七月的聖誕節

What exactly is it?

那到底是什麼意思

Christmas is usually in cold places in Europe so in Australia, it's really hot

在歐洲地區聖誕節時都非常寒冷 在澳洲卻相反

and people like to have the big traditional lamb roast meal.

人們又想要享用傳統聖誕大餐 像是烤羊肉

So we have it in July so we can do it properly.

所以在七月慶祝比較合適

That sounds interesting.

聽起來很有趣

So, what exactly do we cook for that?

所以我們要做些什麼料理

What's really good for roasts is actually these tomatoes on the vine.

這種連枝番茄很適合烘烤類的料理

In the market we asked for some advice from this nice guy in the organic vegetable store.

我們會向有機蔬菜商店的店員尋求建議

And they were really helpful.

他們總是幫得上忙

They taught us like what vegetables to actually put and how long we should leave the meat

他們會告訴我們要放哪種蔬菜 還有肉類應該

in the oven and everything

在烤箱內烘烤的時間

so that was definitely a helpful piece of information.

那絕對是很實用的資訊

What other vegetables do you think we could put in?

那我們還能放些什麼蔬菜呢

Some of these Jerusalem artichokes. They are a little bit different.

這些耶路撒冷朝鮮薊 他們有別於其他品種

I didn't even know that they existed.

我根本不知道有這種蔬菜

I don't know whether it comes from Jerusalem or not,

我不知道那是不是真的來自耶路撒冷

and beetroot for a bit of colour.

還有甜菜根 可以增添色彩

血紅色 很美

Hello. How are you?

哈囉 你好嗎

Good thanks.
