INFO & TIPS

Amendments:
•I diced carrots and added to onions and sauted before adding mince.
•I did not use chopped chillies. I added 1 tsp dhana jeeroo powder, 1 tsp chilli powder, 1/2 tsp red ginger garlic masala, 1 tsp ground green chillies and 1 Tbsp vinegar to mince.
•I didn't use grated cheese. After baking covered with foil for 30min, I uncovered casserole dish and sprinkled parmesan powder over and grilled till the cheese & mash browned.
