But pizza is not the only dish Italy is famous for. Ever heard of Spaghetti alla Carbonara? It has its origins in Rome. The ingredients are: eggs, cheese, bacon and black pepper. In the preparation the hot pasta is combined with a mixture of eggs, cheese and a fat (butter or olive oli) and the eggs should create a creamy sauce.
ORIGIN OF THE NAME The name comes from Carbonaro, the Italian word for charcoal burner and some believe the dish was first made as a hearty meal for Italian charcoal workers.

The Polish students prepared Gazpacho too!
GAZPACHO It is a very typical Spanish starter. LIST OF INGREDIENTS 1kg of tomatoes 1 green pepper 100 gr of onions ½ cucumber 1 clove of garlic 50 gr of bread 125ml of water 3 spoonful of olive oil a little bit of salt 3 spoonful of vinegar PREPARATION Put all the ingredients in a container, except the salt, olive oil and vinegar, and mix them with a blender. When your mixture is liquid, add olive oil, vinegar and salt. Serve cold. You can also add crouton of fried bread on the top. It’s delicious!!
Of course ….PAELLA INGREDIENTS (for four people) 500 gr of rice. 800 gr of chicken (cut into small pieces) 600 gr of rabbit (cut into small pieces) (this kind of meat is optional) 250 gr of green beans 100 gr of tomato (cut into very small pieces) an onion 150 ml of olive oil salt paprika pulverized saffron (it is used so that the rice is yellow) 1 litre of water PREPARATION First, we need to heat the paella (the “paella” is like a frying pan where the food is cooked). We put some olive oil on it. When the oil is hot, we add the chicken and the rabbit. We add salt. The secret to make a good paella is that the meat should be well cooked. Once the meat is cooked, we put it on the sides of the paella,where the heat is less intense. We add the green beans and the onion in the middle. They need less time than the meat to be cooked. We need to keep stirring so that it doesn’t burn. When the green beans are done, we add the tomatoes. We don’t stop stirring because we don’t want to burn our paella. We add the paprika. Then, we add the rice. We stir and add the water. In a paella the quantity of water should be double of the quantity of rice, so if we use 500 gr of rice, we need 1 litre of water. In any case, the water should cover all the ingredients. We add the pulverized saffron or the colouring. Check if we need more salt. Once everything starts boiling, we leave it to boil for 5 minutes high heat. Then leave for slow cook for 30 minutes. Remove from the fire and leave it for five minutes. Then, it is ready. Bon apetit!

When the cake is cold, put the cross made with paper on it and sprinkle sugar glass around it. Then, remove the paper. Your cake is ready!
