Richard & I decided that we all needed some home cooked food so we went off to the market (definitely an experience) and bought some beef to mince ready to make a cottage pie!
When arriving at the market all of the meat was hanging and we had to choose s section of beef to use.....not like at home when you walk into a supermarket and buy a packet of mince!!
Armed with enough food to feed an army it was time to head back and venture into the scary hotel kitchen!! Silly me forgot that I need to wear deet when in the kitchen so I was covered in bites within 1 hour!!
We had to cook the beef and then mince using a hand mincer which sounds easier than it was! At 1 point we had Richard & Donna holding the mincer whilst I fed the meat in & Jason turned the handle, the Burmese kitchen staff though we were mad!!
Despite the kitchen arrangement we managed to turn out a perfect feast for 14 people which everyone seemed to enjoy including Annie who has not eaten cottage pie for years since bad school dinners! What a compliment!
There was even enough food for a 2nd nights feast!
