Tasty tip
Chopping board | Knife | 2 pans | Wooden spoon | Masher | Colander | Measuring spoons | Pie dish This is also great as mini fish pies. Instead of making it in one big dish, split it into singleportion ramekins. Kids love having their own little dish and they can decorate each one differently so they know whose is whose.
