Teacher: In this task, you have to identify the named entities (NER) which are the ingredients required given its directions. Named entities are the names of the items without their quantity.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees., Boil syrup, sugar and shortening over medium heat, stirring constantly., Remove from heat., Gradually stir in flour and nuts., Drop by teaspoonfuls about 3 inches apart on lightly greased cookie sheet., Bake 5 to 6 min., Remove from oven and let stand 5 min, before removing from sheet., May be rolled into cylindrical shape while still hot., If cooled too much, return to oven for a minute., Yield: 4 dozen cookies.
Solution: flour, nuts, corn syrup, shortening, brown sugar
Reason: This is a good example, as we see the NER is generated correctly from the directions.

Now, solve this instance: Put a pot of water on to boil, and when boiling, chuck in the spinach. Boil for about 3 - 4 minutes, until wilted and soft. Drain well in a colander, and cut up roughtly with a knife and fork., Grease a muffin tin with oil or butter (I use a silicone muffin pan which is really great). Heat oven to 325 deg F/160 degC or 150 deg C for fan/convection ovens., Put all the ingredients in a large bowl, and mix roughly with a wooden spoon. (I did not find that extra salt was necessary, but you may want to add a little)., Then mix well together with an electric beater., Fill 12 muffin holes -- you can fill almost to the top, and they won't rise high and cause a mess., Bake about 40 minutes, until firm and starting to colour just a little. Cool in the tin, then remove. Serve sprinkled with parmesan cheese., (Can easily be a nice side dish if served warm).
