Tips

  • You can substitute light creme fraiche with reduced fat sour cream.
  • Bake at 200°C for 18-20 minutes, or airfry at 200°C for 10-12 minutes.
  • To make the gravy, add beef stock to a pan with the cornstarch slurry and Worcestershire sauce, bring to a bubble, then simmer on medium heat till thickened.
  • To cook the sweetcorn, lightly brown some butter in a pan, then add the corn and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Don't cook for too long to keep a little crunch.
  • To reheat, place the contents in a bowl, add a damp paper towel over the top, and microwave for 3 minutes. Once heated, mix well and enjoy!
