Very useful...especially the simple bit about browning under the grill....I left my pies in the oven last night for ages willing them to go brown. :rolleyes: What can I say........I'm just not a cook. :beer: What is glaringly obvious to you lot just isn't to me.:D

Well i decided to add a red pepper a couple of night ago to my cottage pie and it added a very nice twist to the dish - would recommend to anyone.

you get them from the same place that sells fresh tartares for tartare sauce, and 'real' lemons for making lemonade with (as opposed to those horrible nasty 'fake' lemons they try and palm you off with in the supermarket )
