Hi Aarthi
This looks great can't wait to try it!
I just wanted to ask a question related to oven temperature: You say to preheat oven to 180 degree C. Is your oven a fan-assisted oven or conventional? I have a fan-assisted oven at home so not sure if I need to reduce the temperatures that you say or not.
Many thanks!
