Ingredients
What does ingredients mean?
An ingredient is one of the things in a recipe. This includes meat, vegetables, spices, sauces, powders, grains, etc.
While it is impossible to share the English for all possible ingredients I will include the names of a range of ingredients you may encounter.
In English the name of various meats tend to be different to the animal name. Here is a list of commonly eaten meats.
cow meat is called beef. 
pig meat is called pork 
chicken meat is called chicken. 
sheep meat is called mutton or lamb.
Mutton is for adult sheep and lamb is for young sheep.
deer meat is called venison 
goat meat is called chevon for adults and kid for young goats
Now for something different. Since I’m Australian I’ll add Kangaroo to this section:
There is a lot of debate about eating kangaroo meat. Many Australians refuse to eat kangaroo because they are cute. Recently there is a movement called kangatarianism which is eating a vegetarian diet and kangaroo meat. The movement says that kangaroo is a sustainable meat source since they are all over Australia, don’t require farming, don’t emit methane and don’t cause damage to the environment.

Spices are herbs are an essential cooking ingredient for me so here is a lot of spices in English:
basil 
chives 
dill 
lemongrass 
lime leaves 
oregano 
peppermint 
rosemary 
thyme
