Conversion Tables

I often use American recipes.
Sometimes I bother converting them, sometimes I just take my chances...

Here is some handy conversion information which I found on Delia Online.

I shamelessly copied it directly from her site. This way I always know where to look!
Here is a link to her conversion webpage.

If using a fan oven you will need to reduce the oven temperature in a recipe by 20 degrees.
