A copy of the task sheet and scaffolding booklet for the Celebrity Chef unit. It includes a list of celebrity chefs that the students are allowed to choose from (for ease of coordinating prac lessons – only a certain number of recipes can be trailed).
The scaffolding booklet is designed to follow an Inquiry based approach. Students must research the celebrity to learn about their signature dish/dishes, select an appropriate dish (based on the duration of our lessons, cooking budget and other factors), find out about the ingredients, utensils and cooking skills needed (in order to provide a brief explanation in a brochure designed to be given to students in a cooking class). follow this, students must write a justification for why they chose this dish and a brief bio of the chef which includes what they are famous for. There are also instructions for creating their brochure and for reflecting on the prac lesson where they re-create and plate the signature dish.
A template for the brochure with pre-populated headings.
A checklist used to assess students in the practical component of the lesson (the lesson where they cook the signature dish).

This lesson is designed to teach students what a 'signature dish’ is. Students will be choosing a specific celebrity chef for their upcoming assessment to create a brochure about. Within the brochure, this is one element they must include. They will provide information about the cuisine, cooking methods and the recipe. They will also cook the recipe and photograph how they have presented it.
The PPT includes a term for students add to their recipe. The term ‘cuisine’ is also explained. Some information from Encyclopedia Britannica about world cuisine is provided. information about how cuisine evolves is also included (including the term ‘fusion cuisine’). There is a video from Gardening Australia about Kylie Kwong which shows how she incorporates First Nations ingredients in her Cantonese cooking. Following this, students are instructed to use the retrieval chart (also included in this resource) to research the celebrities we are focussing on in the unit and their signature dishes.
