-Welcome to

-the Galwch Acw highlights show.

-This is the series where three Welsh

-learners cook a three-course meal...

-..for each other and for me.

-Our learners

-lived in South Wales this time.

-Paula Gardiner,

-from the Rhondda Valley...

-..was the Head Of Jazz at The

-College of Music And Drama, Cardiff.

-Newly-engaged Huw Davies

-from Llantwit Fardre, Pontypridd...

-..and Louise Gray, a mother of two

-from Fairwater, Cardiff.

-Ioan Talfryn, the Welsh tutor,

-joined them to discuss the menus...

-..to shop and to cook the meals,

-all through the medium of Welsh.

-That looks very professional.

-If you need help

-to follow the programme...

-..use the website,

-the app and the subtitles.

-The learners

-will now introduce themselves...

-..starting with Paula.

-I'm a musician.

-I'm also a composer.

-I work at the Royal Welsh

-College Of Music And Drama...

-..in Cardiff.

-I practice my Welsh with my friends.

-We speak Welsh

-in the office at the college.

-I send Welsh emails to my colleagues

-and also to my friends.

-I've been learning Welsh

-for a long time.

-Since 1972.

-I started to learn Welsh

-when I was at school.

-During the 1990s...

-..I played with some Welsh bands.

-I tried to understand Welsh

-and follow conversations.

-It's really difficult.

-I hope I can improve...

-..and understand

-more and more Welsh.

-I want to try to speak

-more and more Welsh.

-I enjoy speaking Welsh.

-I enjoy learning Welsh.

-And now, I have

-a little bit of confidence...

-..to speak Welsh with my friends

-at the college...

-..and with students.

-I'd love to become fluent

-but there's a long way to go.

-I love to cook.

-I cook every day.

-I enjoy cooking Indian food.

-That's because

-I enjoy eating Indian food!

-When I'm working as a musician,

-I've got to improvise...

-..and I enjoy

-improvising in the kitchen too.

-My favourite Welsh word is...

-..hyfryd - lovely.

-Hyfryd is lovely!

-The next learner is Huw Davies

-and here he is to introduce himself.

-I'm Huw.

-I live in Llantwit Fardre,

-near Pontypridd.

-I started to learn Welsh

-when I was at school.

-I took Welsh to a GCSE level.

-I started to learn Welsh for

-the second time in my workplace...

-..around three years ago.

-Learning Welsh

-is a special experience for me.

-The language is important to me...

-..because I'm a Welshman.

-I enjoy cooking and I cook

-three times a week, if not more.

-I enjoy cooking all sorts of food...

-..but Italian food is my favourite.

-It will be a surreal experience.

-But I enjoy cooking.

-It's a nice experience

-to cook for other people.

-I play a lot of sports.

-I play football

-once a week with my friends.

-I also play badminton.

-I used to play handball

-and rugby too.

-I play cricket during the summer.

-I enjoy reading and Stephen King

-is my favourite author.

-I'm reading Lord Of The Rings

-at the moment.

-My favourite Welsh word

-is ysbrydoliaeth - inspiration.

-Either that

-or chwyrligwgan - whirligig.

-From Llantwit Fardre to the

-Fairwater district of Cardiff...

-..to meet our third learner, Louise.

-I'm Louise Gray

-and I live in Fairwater.

-I've lived here for two years.

-I like living in this area.

-I can get up in the morning

-and hear the birds singing.

-I moved here

-because I wanted a bigger garden.

-I decided to learn Welsh

-because I am Welsh.

-I grew up in Cardiff...

-..but nobody in my family

-spoke Welsh.

-When I had children of my own...

-..I decided that they'd be educated

-through the medium of Welsh.

-That's why I started to learn Welsh.

-I joined a lively

-Welsh learners' group last year.

-It's a group of friends

-called Clonc Yn Y Cwtch...

-..who meet at the Chapter,

-in Cardiff.

-The people in the group support me

-and I enjoy having a chat in Welsh.

-We do things together, as a group.

-We enjoy some Welsh culture

-through the medium of Welsh.

-It's the first time

-I've made friends...

-..with whom

-I speak nothing but Welsh.

-That's important to me.

-I enjoy all sorts of activities...

-..especially dancing.

-I enjoy folk dancing...

-..especially folk dancing

-from France or central Europe.

-Things like waltzes, mazurkas,

-bourre and similar things.

-I enjoy cooking and I cook a lot.

-My sons eat far too much!

-I'm a little bit nervous

-about cooking for new people.

-I don't use recipe books anymore.

-I use the internet.

-I experiment with different ideas

-and different things.

-My tip for someone who's

-learning Welsh is to make friends.

-If you enjoy what you're doing,

-it makes a huge difference.

-Having fun is the secret.

-Join us after the break to see

-how their shopping trips went.

-There was a lot of shopping

-Ooh! I need

-some of these small onions.

-Oh! They're really different.

-They're really pretty.

-Small, red onions.

-I need a cucumber. It's important.

-I'll put it in the salad.

-I need a couple of chillies too.

-Dewr.

-The red chillies are very hot.

-There's another name for okra,

-isn't there?

-What is it in English?

-What is it in English?

-

-Ladies' fingers.

-Let's translate it.

-Fingers - bysedd.

-Bysedd boneddigesau -

-ladies' fingers.

-What do we need next?

-You've got all the vegetables

-you need, so that's next?

-I need some rice.

-What sort of rice do you want?

-Basmati.

-It's my favourite rice.

-Why do you like basmati rice?

-I believe

-it's the easiest rice to cook.

-It's sweet, like nuts too.

-I see.

-It tastes nutty.

-How long does it take

-to cook basmati rice?

-It's really quick.

-You only have to boil it

-for five minutes.

-Oh, really easy.

-This is my favourite rice - basmati.

-How many grams are there

-in that bag?

-It's two kilos.

-I'm an old man!

-How much is two kilos in pounds?

-Almost five pounds.

-There are 2.2lb in one kilo.

-That means there's 4.4lb

-in that 2kg bag of rice.

-You combined Welsh and maths!

-It's really hard.

-It's a magnificent combination.

-It was Huw's turn

-to go shopping for ingredients.

-Here we are in the dairy section.

-The cheese is here.

-You need more than one

-type of cheese, don't you?

-Yes.

-I need a soft cheese,

-such as mascarpone.

-I also need a hard cheese,

-such as parmesan.

-This is the mascarpone.

-I've got to buy two tubs of it.

-This is the parmesan.

-It's already been grated.

-It's already been grated.

-

-Great! It's easier to use.

-What else do we need from this shop?

-I'd like to buy some sponge fingers.

-I'd like to buy some sponge fingers.

-

-Bysedd sbwng - sponge fingers.

-I need some chocolate too.

-Let's look for them.

-You've found

-the bysedd sbwng - sponge fingers.

-Bysiau - buses.

-Bysedd - fingers.

-How many packets do you need?

-Three, I think.

-And now, I need some chocolate.

-There are different types

-of chocolate here.

-This one's 70% cocoa chocolate...

-..and that's 85% cocoa chocolate, so

-it's even darker than the 70% one.

-Which one do you want?

-I've got to choose

-the 85% cocoa chocolate.

-Wythdeg-pump y cant - 85%.

-Y cant - percent.

-Wythdeg-pump y cant.

-That's 8.16, please.

-Here's a 20 note.

-That's 11.84 change.

-Thank you very much.

-Louise went shopping

-at Riverside Farmers' Market.

-Here we are at the stall.

-Here we are at the stall.

-

-Good morning, Ceri.

-What do you need?

-I need to buy some leeks.

-Thick leeks? Thin leeks?

-A mixture of both.

-Thin leeks

-for the Glamorgan sausages...

-..and thick leeks for the soup.

-I also need some potatoes.

-White potatoes? Red potatoes?

-Big potatoes? Small potatoes?

-I'd like some potatoes which

-stay quite firm when they're cooked.

-Lovely.

-I also need some onions.

-Winwns - onions.

-Winwns.

-Winwns

-is similar to the word onions.

-Yes. Winwns - onions.

-What's that?

-Celeriac.

-How does celeriac taste?

-It tastes like celery.

-It's not a strong flavour.

-It's lovely.

-I like it in salads

-and in stir-fries.

-It must taste better than it looks!

-Yes. It's quite ugly, isn't it?

-It's great.

-Thank you. See you next week.

-Now that they've bought

-the ingredients...

-..Louise and Ioan

-get down to some cooking.

-Where would you like me to start?

-What shall I do?

-First, we'll weigh the flour.

-As you're making the dough,

-shall I start chopping vegetables?

-Good idea.

-The vegetables for the soup

-are there.

-How do you want them chopped?

-Do you want big chunks

-or small pieces?

-Quite small.

-Have you made bread before?

-Yes. I used to bake bread

-fairly regularly at one time.

-More flour?

-More flour?

-

-Yes, I think so.

-It's too wet at the moment.

-Are you alright with that now?

-That dough looks good.

-It's elastic now, isn't it?

-It's elastic now, isn't it?

-

-Yes.

-I'm tired now.

-Why don't you show me how it's done?

-First, I must

-give my wrists a warm-up.

-You need plenty of flour.

-Cover it in flour.

-The important thing

-is to use the heel of your palm.

-Fold the dough.

-You want to get

-plenty of air in there.

-Is the bowl ready?

-Have you greased it?

-Have you greased it?

-

-Yes.

-Good.

-In goes the dough.

-It needs time to rise.

-Cover it with a damp towel.

-While the dough rises,

-I'll carry on chopping vegetables.

-You're preparing

-the butternut squash.

-A hard butternut squash!

-I forgot this was in the oven.

-I've dried these tomatoes.

-Did you put oil on them?

-Yes - oil and a bit of salt.

-This is just the first stage.

-When the butternut squash

-has been roasted...

-..I'll add ginger and chilli

-to the tomatoes.

-I'll then put the tray

-back in the oven to dry some more.

-Is the oven ready for the squash?

-Is the oven ready for the squash?

-

-Yes, it's ready.

-The frying pan

-is ready for the leeks.

-These are for the soup.

-In the Rhondda Valley...

-..Paula and Ioan

-are busy preparing a curry.

-Paula, there's a lot of work

-to be done, so where do we start?

-What's my first job?

-We'll start

-by preparing the vegetable sauce.

-It's for the curry.

-The curry is the main course,

-but we'll start with that.

-Yes.

-Onions.

-Those are for you.

-I'll chop the beetroot,

-the black radish and the celeriac.

-You'll chop those? Right.

-Do you make a lot of curries?

-Yes. I'll cook a curry once a week.

-I usually cook a curry on Mondays...

-..or Tuesdays.

-After a Sunday roast.

-Does that mean you use

-leftover meat in your curries?

-Yes.

-Sbarion - leftovers.

-Yes. I use leftovers.

-The sauce will have a lovely colour.

-Excellent.

-What's next?

-What shall I do now?

-The cinnamon.

-Do you remember

-the Welsh word for bark?

-Not the woof-woof variety

-but bark, as in cinnamon bark?

-Do you remember

-the Welsh word for bark?

-I don't know it.

-I don't know it.

-

-Rhisgl.

-Rhisgl sinamon - cinnamon bark.

-Rhisgl sinamon - cinnamon bark.

-

-Rhisgl sinamon.

-Oh, it's lovely.

-Just one.

-You pull out the bark

-before you serve the sauce.

-Next, some water.

-Join us after the break...

-..to see how Huw got on

-with his tiramisu.

-Welcome back

-to the Galwch Acw highlights show.

-In the latest series,

-we met Paula Gardner...

-..Huw Davies and Louise Gray.

-Ioan Talfryn helped them all

-shop and cook in Welsh.

-If you need help

-to follow the programme...

-..use the website,

-the app and the subtitles.

-Next, we join Huw and Ioan...

-..as they prepare the pudding.

-Huw, what do we need to do

-to prepare the tiramisu?

-First, the eggs.

-Separate?

-Separate?

-

-Gwahanu.

-Yes - we must separate

-the yolks and the whites.

-Melyn wy - egg yolk.

-Gwyn wy - egg white.

-This is the bowl.

-How many eggs will you use?

-I must separate six eggs.

-You've done this before.

-You've done this before.

-

-Of course.

-I've separated the eggs.

-The yolks are in one bowl

-and the whites are in the other.

-Next, add some sugar.

-What's three tablespoons in Welsh?

-What's three tablespoons in Welsh?

-

-Tair llond llwy fwrdd.

-Tair llond llwy fwrdd.

-In goes the final one.

-There are three tablespoons

-of sugar in there.

-We must beat the eggs and sugar

-with the machine.

-Cymysgwr - mixer.

-Can you use it?

-Yes. I just hope

-I don't cover the walls in egg.

-For how long must I beat it?

-Until it's light and creamy.

-Creamy - hufennog.

-Ysgafn a hufennog -

-light and creamy.

-Is this creamy enough for you?

-Yes, it looks great to me.

-Add the mascarpone

-to the egg mixture.

-The tubs are ready to be recycled.

-Wash them first, of course.

-I'll start whipping this.

-With the egg whites...

-..do you want me to whisk it

-until it forms peaks?

-Yes - stiff peaks.

-Pigau - peaks.

-Yes, and we need stiff peaks.

-The egg whites are ready

-and they're pretty solid.

-Great. Thank you.

-The next step

-is to add this to that.

-First, add a little bit

-of the egg white mixture.

-You're folding it into the mixture.

-Plygu - fold it in.

-Yes, but not too much.

-You won't mix it too hard.

-No, because we must

-keep the mixture light.

-The next job

-is to prepare the coffee.

-Ioan makes a pot of coffee

-and leaves it to cool.

-He then pours the cold coffee

-over the biscuits.

-The biscuits

-have been covered in coffee.

-They've absorbed it all...

-..so what's next?

-Add this mixture.

-Next, we'll sprinkle

-some cocoa powder on top.

-Taenu - sprinkle.

-Sprinkle cocoa powder.

-This looks very professional.

-The next layer

-is identical to the first one.

-The final step

-is to grate chocolate on top.

-They're ready for the fridge.

-Yes.

-We must get on with

-it because time's flying.

-The food is ready...

-..and we're all ready

-to enjoy a tasty meal...

-..fingers crossed!

-Welcome to Fairwater, Cardiff.

-This is the starter.

-Pea and leek soup

-with basil oil and creme fraiche.

-Lovely.

-The soup looks really artistic.

-It looks green at least!

-The bread is really tasty.

-There's butter

-at the end of the table.

-Congratulations.

-I know you were

-worried about the bread, Louise.

-You'd only made bread

-once before, hadn't you?

-It's a huge success.

-Thank you for saying that.

-Huw, have you ever attempted

-to bake your own bread?

-I certainly haven't tried it.

-Have you ever given it a go?

-Have you ever given it a go?

-

-Yes, once, when I was at school.

-We made bread in a cookery lesson.

-It was awful!

-It was as hard as a hammer.

-It was terrible.

-I bought a bread machine

-last summer.

-Ah! So you don't have to

-do the kneading.

-No. I just tip the ingredients

-in the bread maker and off it goes.

-The soup is lovely, Louise.

-You should make bread more often.

-It's really good.

-We've finished the starter

-and it was very tasty.

-You know the routine.

-I have a question for you

-at the end of every course.

-Louise,

-here's today's first question.

-What was your first pet?

-A hamster.

-I had lots of hamsters.

-They'd escape pretty regularly.

-Paula, what about you?

-What was your first pet?

-What was your first pet?

-

-A budgie.

-His name was Joey.

-He'd fly...

-..all around the living room.

-I remember it well.

-Joey would warble away.

-Something like that.

-He couldn't speak Welsh.

-It would have been interesting

-if the budgie could speak Welsh!

-Huw, what about you?

-What was your first pet?

-What was your first pet?

-

-The same as Pauline.

-We kept budgies.

-Did they speak Welsh?

-No.

-Two budgies and one hamster but,

-thankfully, not in the same house!

-Louise, thank you very much

-for the starter.

-The soup was lovely.

-The colour was lovely

-and it was sweet.

-Simply lovely.

-Fair play to Louise,

-the bread was great.

-It's difficult to make bread.

-It takes a lot of work.

-The bread rolls were brilliant.

-In the Rhondda Valley, Paula's ready

-to serve her main course.

-The main course.

-It's curry.

-I made a lamb curry.

-I used Welsh lamb.

-Enjoy.

-Cyri mwyn - a mild curry.

-What's mwyn?

-What's mwyn?

-

-Mild.

-There are lots of spices in there...

-..but only one whole chilli.

-It's lovely and quite sweet.

-Is that the onions and the beetroot?

-Is that the onions and the beetroot?

-

-Yes.

-Winwns - onions.

-There's also

-celeriac and spinach in there.

-I found a chilli.

-A whole, uncut chilli.

-It's lucky!

-Everyone's bowl is empty

-and that says it all.

-We all enjoyed that main course.

-Before the dessert,

-I have another question for you.

-What's the best place or the most

-interesting place you've visited?

-My favourite city

-in the whole world is Prague...

-..in the Czech Republic.

-It's wonderful.

-The buildings are brilliant.

-The atmosphere is really special.

-Louise, what about you?

-I'll choose Merthyr Mawr.

-I adore the coast...

-..and I go back there

-time after time...

-..to run up and down the sand dunes.

-I'm thinking about Lapland,

-and a town called Saariselka.

-Saariselka is a small town...

-..in the Arctic Circle.

-It's wonderful.

-Have you seen the Northern Lights?

-Yes.

-I saw the Northern Lights

-in Carlisle.

-Did you really? Well, well!

-Yes - back in 1991.

-It sounds more romantic...

-..to see the Northern Lights in

-the Arctic Circle than in Carlisle!

-I often cook Indian food...

-..and I eat Indian food

-when I go out.

-I enjoyed the main course.

-The lamb was really tender.

-It was excellent.

-I love curry,

-so the main course was ideal.

-I was delighted

-with the main course.

-Join us after the break...

-..to enjoy a really tasty dessert.

-Welcome back.

-Let's join Huw,

-who's ready to serve the dessert.

-This is the tiramisu.

-It's a traditional,

-Venetian dessert.

-The ingredients include

-mascarpone cheese, sponge fingers...

-..coffee and chocolate.

-Enjoy.

-Thank you very much.

-Lovely.

-Do you like coffee?

-Yes, I do.

-The tiramisu -

-the Italian pick me up.

-It was really tasty. Thank you.

-Before we finish,

-I have one final question for you.

-Paula,

-I'll start with you this time.

-If you were to live on a remote

-island, far away from everywhere...

-..what is the one thing

-you'd have to take with you...

-..apart from food and drink?

-My glasses.

-Louise?

-Louise?

-

-I wouldn't want to be too lonely.

-I'd take a radio with me.

-One of those

-you charge by turning a handle.

-I could listen to the radio.

-I'd tune in to Radio Cymru,

-of course!

-Thank you for your answers and

-thank you for a lovely meal, Huw.

-The only thing I can say

-is grazie mille.

-I liked everything Huw cooked...

-..but the tiramisu

-was a bit too big for me.

-I enjoyed the dessert.

-The cream was well whipped

-and it was really light.

-It was nice.

-Chocolate is my favourite food...

-..so I enjoyed the chocolate

-on the top of the dessert.

-I had fun around Huw's table today.

-After the meal, it was good

-to look back on the experience.

-Huw, you can relax now.

-Looking back, did you enjoy it?

-Yes.

-It was a brilliant experience.

-It was great fun to cook with Ioan.

-Ioan the chef!

-Yes - the head chef.

-It was fun.

-How difficult was it for you, Huw?

-You were under pressure

-in the kitchen.

-You had to prepare a meal

-and you also had to think in Welsh.

-I think it was pretty difficult.

-Before today, I'd cooked

-and I'd spoken Welsh...

-..but I'd never done both things

-at the same time.

-It was a surreal experience.

-It's pretty difficult

-to do both things at the same time.

-How helpful has it been for you...

-..to have Ioan by your side

-during this period of time?

-Ioan was brilliant all day long.

-He helped me

-prepare the ingredients...

-..and whenever I didn't know a word,

-he was here to help me.

-Did he need a lot of help, Ioan?

-Did he need a lot of help, Ioan?

-

-No, it was just a few words.

-We just chatted naturally

-and one thing led to the next.

-I think people learn a language more

-effectively in a real situation...

-..rather than learning it

-in a classroom.

-Huw, thank you for welcoming us

-into your home and for the meal.

-I wish you all the luck in the world

-for the wedding.

-Thank you very much.

-Louise, as you learn Welsh...

-..do you find it easier to be

-surrounded by Welsh speakers...

-..where you chat away in Welsh...

-..rather than in a formal classroom?

-Yes, I think so.

-I'm looking for opportunities

-outside the classroom.

-Opportunities to speak Welsh,

-to listen to Welsh music...

-..and to watch Welsh plays.

-Things like that.

-I want to meet new people

-who can speak Welsh.

-Louise, what do you hope

-will be the next step for you...

-..along the path to learning Welsh?

-The experiences I've had today...

-..of doing things through

-the medium of Welsh was great.

-Cooking in the kitchen and chatting

-away to people in Welsh was good.

-I think I'll invite my friends

-from Clonc Yn Y Cwtch over...

-..to cook with me.

-I wouldn't cook for them

-and have it ready for them...

-..but cook food with them.

-Ioan, it's fair to say...

-..that Louise has travelled far

-down the path to being fluent.

-Yes.

-You've reached the stage where

-you can speak Welsh the entire time.

-For you, it's a case of improving

-your Welsh rather than learning it.

-You've reached that high level.

-You've reached that high level.

-

-Thank you.

-In a city like Cardiff...

-..there are plenty of opportunities

-to speak Welsh every day.

-Yes, and plenty of

-interesting events are held locally.

-Good luck with the next step.

-Thank you for welcoming us

-into your home...

-..and for cooking

-that lovely, tasty meal.

-You're welcome.

-I enjoyed the week.

-It was hard work...

-..and there were

-a lot of things to do.

-I met lots of new people.

-And then, of course,

-I spoke a lot of Welsh.

-I spoke more Welsh than ever...

-..and I spoke it really quickly too.

-I tried to learn new words.

-I had a lot of fun

-through this experience.

-I met a lot of new people.

-It was brilliant to have a chance to

-speak Welsh with different people.

-It was really challenging to mix

-speaking Welsh with cooking...

-..but it was an enjoyable challenge.

-MUSIC

-Paula, I know you were

-a little bit worried...

-..before you started

-to prepare the food.

-Looking back, did you enjoy it?

-Yes. It was really good.

-Ioan has helped me.

-Yn arbennig - especially?

-Yn arbennig - especially?

-

-Yes.

-Very good. Thank you.
