Mowzer’s favourite dinner is Star-gazy pie.

Here is a paragraph explaining how to make Stargazy Pie

Scale, clean & bone the fish, keeping the heads on! Season inside each with salt, pepper & parsley, roll neatly. Butter dish, & sprinkle a thick layer of breadcrumbs on. Lay in some of the fish, then alternate breadcrumbs & fish until dish is full. Cover with rashers (bacon). Beat eggs with vinegar, pour into pie, or use cream. Cover with pastry. Arrange heads on pastry, so as they are looking up (to the stars). Bake in a hot oven. Serve with a sprig of parsley in mouth of each fish.

Using this information your task is to write a set of instructions to explain how to

make it. Remember to lay your work out clearly using the correct features.

You can add in extra information if you would like to.

Don’t forget to send your instructions to us to see.
