Hey I'm Grace! I'm one of Vanya's sisters and I love baking and cooking. She's asked me to contribute some of my favourite recipes to the website which is so exciting.
I'm a qualified chef and have worked in kitchens in New Zealand and overseas. I have even had my own dessert caravan which was super fun, I hope you enjoy my recipes!

Philippa Sweetman says
In the cottage pie recipe is the 1tbs of mixed herbs relating to fresh or dried herbs? Presume dried but 1tbs seems like a lot?
Thanks Philippa.

Yes, 1 tablespoon of dried herbs is correct. Feel free to use less if you prefer!
