plz,tell the meaning of the sentence~

there is a video for noodles cooking:
-
If I want the yolk to be more cooked,
then what I'll do is I'll pick up some noodles and sort of cover it.
And that will cook it.
So that maybe when I'm half way through, or towards the end of my bowl of ramen, I have a delicious yolk that's mostly cooked.
-
I just wonder the meaning of-
So that maybe when I'm half way through, or towards the end of my bowl of ramen, I have a delicious yolk that's mostly cooked.

    We'll break this into parts:

    1) She's talking about how far she will have eaten into the bowl of ramen, if that makes sense. She starts with a full bowl, and begins to eat it. She will eventually have eaten half the bowl, and then almost all of the bowl of food. So, if she pushes the yolk to the bottom of the bowl while it's still full of noodles, she is saying that the hot noodles will continue to cook the egg yolk.

    2) "Mostly," in that sentence, is referring to how cooked the yolk is. If it is mostly or nearly cooked, then it will be just a little liquid and raw still (it won't be FULLY cooked, if that makes sense). A raw yolk begins as entirely liquid. With her recipe, the yolk becomes MOSTLY solid. Think of it like the yolk of a hard boiled egg, but not as firm.

    1. what's "I'm half way through, or towards the end of my bowl of ramen"
    Answer: It is referring to being "almost" finished eating the bowl of noodles.

    2. that's mostly cooked. - in there, mostly means what?
    Answer: Mostly is another way to say nearly all the way, or 90% cooked.
