How the test works

Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

When it's cold outside, I like to stay inside. I turn on the heat and I prepare my favourite meal. As a starter, I make a warm soup with leeks, potatoes and carrots. My main dish is a delicious beef bourguignon, with button mushrooms and a red wine sauce. Then, I eat a piece of cheese, and I end the meal with a homemade crème brûlée. I'm very hungry now!
