Cooking chilli con carni and pancakes today as part of the workshops that we have four nights a week, we had a brainstorm over what would most effectively represent the cusine of Britain and opted for a Mexican dish and pancakes - go figure. Shepherds pie would probably have been a lot better but we don't have an oven and most popular British dishes require an oven and two hours cooking. We could always use the classic phrase 'here's one I made earlier' and whip a full roast out in front of an amazed and no doubt impressed group of Peruvian women.
