私の最近ハマっていることはインド料理を作ることです。
先日電子レンジで作れるインド料理のレシピの本を見つけて、Kindleで買いました。週末はその本に載っていたビリヤニ（Biryani）を作りました。とても簡単においしく作れたので、今度はカレーのレシピに挑戦したいと思っています。
ご存じのとおり、インド料理にはスパイスがたくさん必要です。私の場合は、以前にカレーを作るために買ったたくさんのスパイスがあったので、それを使っています。
驚いたことに、この話を何人かの生徒に話したところ、インド料理にハマっている生徒が二人もいることがわかりました。もしかしたら世界的にインド料理のブームが来ているのかもしれません。
私の住んでいる街にはインド料理のレストランが一軒もないので、インド料理を家で作れるのはとてもうれしいです。
皆さんはインド料理が好きですか？家でカレーを作ったことはありますか？

Biryani：mixed rice dish
ハマっている：I’m into~
先日：せんじつ the other day
ご存（ぞん）じのように：As you know
電子（でんし）レンジ：microwave
挑戦（ちょうせん）したい：I want to try
以前（いぜん）に：earlier
苦手：にがて　I’m not good at
驚（おどろ）いたことに：surprisingly

En el episodio de hoy vuelvo a hablar de palabras, esta vez de oxímoron, que son la combinación de dos palabras o expresiones de significado opuesto que juntas dan lugar a un nuevo significado. 
En el episodio hablo de oxímoros en español y te explico su significado y el significado de las palabras que los forman.

A mí, personalmente, me parece algo muy curioso, y espero tú lo encuentres interesante también. Y como siempre, que lo disfrutes. 
Después de escucharlo no te olvides de dejar una valoración a este podcast, ni de pasarte por mi Instagram para comentar qué te ha parecido este episodio y si conoces otros oxímoros, ¿son comunes también en tu idioma nativo?
