Do have a look at the video before preparing this dish! You'll see that Craig has some lovely small pans. If you don't have a pan with a handle that will go in your oven, you could use a non-stick cake tin (one that does not have a loose bottom). Place on a metal tray to make it easier to get in and out of the oven.
