Be brave... And post up a pic of how badly the first one went too...
Least now you know to turn the heat down a bit and leave it in less time!

what temp did you set the oven for and how long did you leave it in.
On most cooking instruction it says less time if Fan assisted, have you taken that into account??, And No I was not taking the pi** as fan ovens do heat quicker

next one start the oven at the lowest temperature mate (1)and check after a max of ten mins, you can do and don't cuss yourself down
