Never mind who’s going to get the gold this year; these top foods from the highest-medaling countries around the world are all winners.
U.K: Fish and Chips
The UK's go-to pub grub- beer battered fish, thick, golden chips, and a side of blitzed mushy peas. Don't forget to serve with a side of tartar sauce and slice of lemon!
USA: Burger with Dressing and Pickles
These perfectly griddled burgers –– a blend of ground chuck and brisket –– are served with 18000 island dressing and quick pickles, making them a delicious way to cheer on the USA.
Germany: Bratwurst with Sweet and Sour Cabbage
Enjoy a medal-worthy meal of Germany's favourite sausage, which is browned in a pan along with garlic and onions, then served with slow-simmered sweet and sour cabbage.
Italy: Margherita Pizza
Proudly representing the colours of the Italian flag, this crowd-pleasing dish boasts a homemade pizza dough that's topped with crushed San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and basil leaves.

China: Steamed Pork-and-Mushroom Shumai
Craving dim sum but don't want to miss a moment of the games? Try making traditional Chinese dumplings at home by stuffing wonton wrappers with a ground pork and shiitake filling, then serving them with a chile-spiked soy dipping sauce.
Sweden: Swedish Meatballs
This iconic Swedish dish is a favourite for a reason. Serve the golden-brown meatballs on skewers along with lingonberry jam.
Hungary: Quick Pork Goulash
One of Hungary's national dishes, goulash gains ample flavour from sweet paprika and caraway seeds. Our quick-cooking version combines pork tenderloin with sautéed vegetables in a vinegar-laced broth and serves the stew over whole-wheat egg noodles.
Norway: Smoked Salmon
Alton gives a nod to Norway's famous delicacy with his brown sugar- and peppercorn-cured salmon fillets. Once it's cured, he hot-smokes the fish over hardwood chips to achieve a flaky, tender consistency.
Australia: Meat Pies
Filled with a mix of beef, lamb, and pine-nuts, these tasty pies are baked until golden brown and always go down a treat.
Japan: Ramen with Shrimp
Slurp your way through the games with a delicious bowl of fresh ramen. This version of Japan's signature noodle soup is served with shrimp for an extra juicy finish.
Canada: Gnocchi Poutine
To re-create Canada's beloved dish, make your gnocchi as you usually would and add Camembert and a red wine gravy drizzled on top.
