Burning food saw firefighters caleld to Bowles Road, Falmouth, last night after the alarm was raised by neighbours.
Crews from Falmouth were mobilised just before midnight on Sunday after neighbours reported the sound of a smoke detector sounding at an adjacent property.
Firefighters found that some food that had been left on the cooker had burnt, setting off the alarms.
