NEA 2 - Food tech

I've chosen the task 'Plan, prepare, cook and present a range of dishes that celebrate an event, occasion or festival from around the world. Present three dishes.' I have gone for Diwali but am so confused what the difference is between task B - technical and task D - final exam. I know task B is only worth 18 marks against the 30 marks available for task D, but surely technical food is worth more?? I'm not sure which of my dishes to do for each task. Looking at one of my desserts, there really isn't much skill involved, with it being ladoo. If I was to make an indian based cheesecake with homemade biscuits and laddoo, would this be technical enough?

What were the other choices ? Our food tech teacher is off and we haven’t been given them yet !

I'm doing the same task, but I've chosen Eid. We've just finished our technical exam in early December and basically it's to show complex skills to the examiner. You can't do the same dishes that you are planning to do for your final, but you can make them similar. I used skills such as tenderising and marinating, deboning a lamb shank, making bread, making pastry (all from scratch), etc, and my teacher gave me a 9 / A*. So for yours, if you plan on doing the cheesecake and laddoo, you need to make sure your other two dishes have more complicated skills. Otherwise, you won't be able to reach the highest grade boundary. Hope this helps.

I am doing Section D next week. I did the family one.

im nearly finished with my nea2 just have no clue what to write for the final part improvements and mods and final overview how well have u met the task can someone please send theirs im stuck
