3. Chicken, red pepper and brie puff pie

Ingredients:

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
½ lemon, grated zest and juice
2 tablespoons of fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoons of olive oil
salt and pepper
1 can of red peppers
200g of brie
pepper
salt
1 egg, beaten, to glaze
3 tablespoons of grated parmesan

Recipe:

Cut each chicken breast almost in half lengthways and open out to form a large flat fillet. Put each fillet between plastic film and bat out with a rolling pin to flatten. Put in a shallow dish and sprinkle over the lemon zest, juice, salt, pepper, thyme leaves and oil. You can now cook the chicken straight away or leave the fillets to marinate for up to a day covered with plastic film.

Heat a large non-stick frying pan or a griddle pan until really hot. Fry the chicken (you will need to do this in batches), turning often, for about 8-10 minutes until browned and just cooked. Remove and leave to cook.

Drain the peppers, cut in half and pat dry on kitchen paper. Slice the brie. Roll out the pastry to a 35cm/14 in square. Arrange three chicken fillets along the centre third almost to the edges. Cover with half the peppers, then all the brie, followed by the rest of the peppers and finally the remaining chicken fillets, seasoning between the layers as you go.

Brush the pastry with beaten egg. Draw up the two long edges over the filling and pinch together following the shape of the filling. Seal the ends, then trim off the excess pastry with scissors or a knife. Pinch the pastry join edges with your fingers, like you would a pasty.

Carefully transfer the pie to a damp baking sheet. Brush liberally with egg and sprinkle with parmesan. The pie can now be chilled for up to 24 hours.

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 from cold. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the pastry is crisp and golden. Cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a serving plate and cut into thick slices to serve. 




4. Cristeam's recipe:

My recipe is the national and most popular dish in Venezuela: it's called Arepas



Ingredients:

We need flour, oil,water, salt and butter


Preparation:

First at all we have to put the flour with a little of salt and butter in a bowl then we'll put the water inside and mix them for 4 minutes until you can't feel any flour lumps . Once done it we'll wait for five minutes in order to set the mixture, After we are going to make little balls with the mixture and put them on a pan or skillet with a little  hot oil, we'll cook them for 5 minutes for each side and finally for eating the arepas, you can open in the middle and fill with any food, but the most popular ingredients to fill up are yellow or white cheese with butter, meat,beans, etc.

5. Gilberto's  recipe:




Lasagna with Spinach

- fresh spinach
- 1 onion
- seedless raisins
- fresh cheese
- grated cheese
- whole milk

Then, we make the bechamel; for it in a frying pan with a little hot oil, we add the flour and stir, while we take the finely chopped onion and stir milk and let us stir until creamy.

6.  Jesus: Pasta Carbonara

First of all, we must fry bacon with a little bit of butter in a frying pan during more or less ten minutes.
Beat eggs, parmesan chesse and black pepper.
Me must cook the pasta during ten minutes with a little bit of salt.
When the pasta is ready, we drain the pasta in a collander.
Finally we stir the eggs, parmesan chesse and black pepper with the pasta in the frying pan where we did the bacon.
The most important thing of this recipe is that we musn't use cream, like a lot of people think. The original "carbonara recipe" doesn't have cream.
