Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Pasta, Minced Beef, Onion, Tomato and Basil: What's cooking?

Answer: Spaghetti Bolognese

Spaghetti Bolognese originates from a large city in Italy called Bologna. It became so popular that, in 1982, the people of the city released the official recipe for "Classic Bolognese".
2. Potatoes, Carrots, Minced Beef, Butter and Onion: What's cooking?

Answer: Cottage Pie

Shepherd's Pie originated in around 1870, a variant on the already popular Cottage Pie dish. Today, these two dishes are basically the same, but Shepherd's Pie is usually made with lamb or mutton, instead of the beef that Cottage Pie is made with.
3. Leek, Cannellini Beans, Pasta, Celery and Bread: What's cooking?

Answer: Minestrone Soup

Minestrone, literally "The Big Soup", has traditionally never had a set recipe, because it can be made all year round, and usually uses whichever vegetables are in season. It can be vegetarian, or use a meat broth to add flavour.
4. Muffins, Eggs, Hollandaise Sauce, Parma Ham and Vinegar: What's cooking?

Answer: Eggs Benedict

The origin of Eggs Benedict is still debated, with the earliest account of the dish dating from around 1894. Since then it has become a key part of many a breakfast menu, along with the many variations that have also arisen.
5. Chicken, Rice, Red Peppers, Tomato and Onions: What's cooking?

Answer: Chicken Tikka Masala

Chicken Tikka Masala is one of the most popular dishes in the world, and was once found to be the most popular British dish. The origins of the dish are also debated, but it is mostly accepted that it was created in either England or Scotland, but probably not in India itself.
6. Kidney Beans, Beef, Tomato, Chilli and Sour Cream: What's cooking?

Answer: Chili Con Carne

Chili Con Carne is traditionally made with meat, as the name suggests, but can sometimes be made as a vegetarian dish, with tofu used as a meat substitute.
7. Egg Whites, Strawberries, Double Cream, Caster Sugar and Raspberries: What's cooking?

Answer: Eton Mess

Eton Mess is said to have been created by accident, after the chef at Eton ruined a pavlova that was meant for an important dinner at the school. However this is now known to be untrue, as it was actually served from the Eton tuck shop first, and the meringue was a late addition.
8. Flour, Yeast, Tomato, Cheese and Basil: What's cooking?

Answer: Pizza

Pizza is one of the most popular dishes in the world, and the traditional, circular pizza originated in Naples, and is called a Neapolitan. The cheese and tomato "Margherita", was named after Queen Margaret, who was given the dish with ingredients chosen for the colours of the Italian flag: red, white and green.
9. Biscuit Crumbs, Vanilla, Cream Cheese, Sour Cream and Lemon: What's cooking?

Answer: New York Cheesecake

New York Cheesecake is known for its distinctive vanilla flavour, and its dependence on cream. There are many variations to the recipe, which usually involve the addition of fruit, creating new flavours.
10. Butter, Sugar, Eggs, Flour, Cream and Strawberry Jam: What's cooking?

Answer: Victoria Sponge

The Victoria Sponge is named after the famous British monarch of the same name, who enjoyed a slice of sponge cake with jam and cream for afternoon tea. The top of the cake is traditionally left plain, and is not iced at all. The cake is well known for needing specific temperatures and timings to be perfect, and many oven makers use this recipe to test out their prototype models.
