What's Cooking Title
What's Cooking New Title 2

What's Cooking? with Theo and Cleo (also known as What's Cooking?) is a cooking main recurring segment from Between the Lions starring Theo Lion and Cleo Lion as chefs. In each segment, they have a recipe (for example, "slammed and rammed ham with no yam or clam") and all the ingredients they need (and a few they don't). The ingredients are all labeled.

The lions read the recipe step-by-step which usually involves getting rid of the extra ingredients and preparing the main component of the recipe. The final step of each recipe involves allowing the food to cook for a specific amount of time -- at which point the lions just say "Nah!" and devour the food raw and/or fish. Sometimes, the segments end with the camera zooming in on the refrigerator to segue into a Sam Spud: Par-Boiled Potato Detective segment. However, this seems to happen at the end of every installment whether it follows a Sam Spud segment or not.

The segments disappeared entirely in seasons 5-8, but seasons 9-10 saw a new version of the segment that takes place in a revised kitchen, and on occasion, Lionel and Leona would be involved as well.
