      No if my recipes ever need the tea towel trick Leanne I will always specifically say that they do.
      If I don’t mention it then it doesn’t need one 🙂

    Last night we made this to serve with our lamb that we also cooked in our larger SC. It was a clear hit especially when I had been home sick all day. Empty plates all round. Very yummy.
