Read it through first

Skim all 7 steps before you start — it is the difference between cooking and firefighting.

Scale it

Use the quantities listed in the original recipe. Adjust them manually if making a different batch size.

Storage

Cool completely, then keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.

Reheating

Reheat gently with a splash of water in a covered pan, rather than blasting it, so nothing dries out.
