You need to follow the recipe as long as you have the right breeds in right combinations. You have to breed a Norman Cob and a Forest x Belgian cross. Norman x Forest bred to Belgian won't work, Norman x Belgian to Forest won't work either. The combination has to be correct, but further than that, you can variate. Doesn't matter which breed is the mare and which is the stallion. Doesn't matter if they're purebred, part, half or even mixed, as long as they don't have any other breeds listed but what the recipe calls for, it's ok.
What you have to get right though, is breed evaluation for the foal. All four evaluations must fall inside the brackets your intended breed calls for, or the foal will be a cross instead of the new breed. The parent's should not evaluate good for these, it's only the foals evaluation that matters (like you can breed a too tall mare with too small stallion and get a foal that is the right height).
Good luck
