The Posh Cottage – assembly and a couple of photos!

On the day, slice your cooked baked potatoes – with or without skin.

Take the steak pie base out of the fridge a couple of hours before you intend to bake it.

Arrange your sliced potatoes on top of the steak, then add a generous sprinkle of grated mature cheddar cheese. Add black pepper – no salt required, it's already in the cheese.

good enough to eat, the steak retains it shape and the colour

of the gravy is perfect

here's a miniature version of the Posh Cottage

Pre-heat your oven 180fan/200c/Gas 6 and bake your Posh Cottage for 40 minutes – check after 30 – it's a deep dish pie and should be piping hot with the potato and cheese topping slightly crispy around the edges and golden cheese.

Serving the Posh Cottage with whatever veggies you'd choose, at the table, is the best decision, paying attention when they say stop. They can always return for more!

An informal supper is the most relaxing get together, all the food is on the table at the same time and your guests can help themselves to whatever takes their fancy – a second helping may be?
