sample sale!!!!!!

London Fashion Week

so london fashion week is over. our girl on the ground sarah, went on sunday to see some shows and try to spot some lisa stickley bags. the average bag held by a fashionista seemed to be a canvas tote or a mulberry bag, so sarah was representing for us. her gracie bowler bag, went really well with the logo of the LFW sign though!







jasper conran was a favourite with beautifully cut elegant dresses and lots of sequins! 
if your headed to london fashion weekend, this weekend, look out for molly bakes who will be sporting our aprons whilst serving up the sweetest most fashionable treats!

martha's cottage pie...


martha was busy last night making cottage pie which is an old family recipe and she's kindly shared with us. as it's getting colder it's nice to eat yummy comfort food to keep us warm.

Ingredients:

3 tbsp olive oil
1¼ kg beef mince
2 onions, finely chopped
3 carrots, chopped
3 celery sticks, chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 tbsp plain flour
1 tbsp tomato purée
large glass red wine (optional)
850ml beef stock
4 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
few thyme sprigs
2 bay leaves

Mash-
1.8kg potatoes, chopped
225ml milk
25g butter
200g strong cheddar, grated
freshly grated nutmeg

method:

1.         tbsp oil in a large saucepan and fry the mince until browned - you may need to do this in batches. Set aside as it browns. Put the rest of the oil into the pan, add the vegetables and cook on a gentle heat until soft, about 20 mins. Add the garlic, flour and tomato purée, increase the heat and cook for a few mins, then return the beef to the pan. Pour over the wine, if using, and boil to reduce it slightly before adding the stock, Worcestershire sauce and herbs. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 45 mins. By this time the gravy should be thick and coating the meat. Check after about 30 mins - if a lot of liquid remains, increase the heat slightly to reduce the gravy a little. Season well, then discard the bay leaves and thyme stalks.
2.         Meanwhile, make the mash. In a large saucepan, cover the potatoes in salted cold water, bring to the boil and simmer until tender. Drain well, then allow to steam-dry for a few mins. Mash well with the milk, butter, and three-quarters of the cheese, then season with the nutmeg and some salt and pepper.
3.         Spoon meat into 2 ovenproof dishes. Pipe or spoon on the mash to cover. Sprinkle on the remaining cheese. If eating straight away, heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and cook for 25-30 mins, or until the topping is golden. Or follow the steps (below) to freeze.

let us know if you make it.
