Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Passage: I had thawed my ground beef ahead of time in the fridge . I took a pan from the drawer and paced it on the stove burner . I turned the burner heat to the medium setting . I placed the ground beef into the skillet . I washed my hands at the sink and then reomved a spatula from the drawer . I used the spatula to break apart the ground beef in the pan into the smallest possible pieces . I tossed the meat in the skillet every minute or so to make sure that all of the meat was browning . I then removed a platter from my cabinet and placed onto the platter a couple of paper towels . I scooped the meat from the pan onto the platter so the paper towels could absorb the excess fat . Question: What was the stove doing? Option1: frying Option2: absorbing excess fat
Output (English): frying
