料 ingredients / fees

REORDER more ingredients.

Get the ingredients and the rice from the spice rack. This is gonna be some nut-busting risotto here, I tell you that right now.

free ★★★★☆
無 (without) + 料 (ingredients / fees) = 無料 (free)

free (not like Martin Luther King, I mean free like a free magazine full of articles on how to become a stripper)

cuisine/cooking ★★★★☆
料 (ingredients / fees) + 理 (reason) = 料理 (cuisine/cooking)

２ meanings.
1： cooking , as in, "My hobby is cooking. I'm cooking right now, I can't talk."
2： cuisine, as in, "My favorite cuisine is Mexican. My favorite cuisine is Indonesian."
(BOOBOO: You don't say, though, "I'm going to buy some ryouri." Or "I'm eating ryouri right now." )

a fee, also, bills. ★★★☆☆
料 (ingredients / fees) + 金 (gold) = 料金 (a fee, also, bills.)

wages ★★★☆☆
給 (provide) + 料 (ingredients / fees) = 給料 (wages)

wages - a bit more useful than the related word 給与. For instance, 'payday' is 給料日 (きゅうりょうび)、 not 給与日.

spices ★☆☆☆☆
香 (good smell) + 辛 (spicy / painful) + 料 (ingredients / fees) = 香辛料 (spices)

spices - not just hot ones. This is the only word you'll ever need the onyomi for. Sorry.
