    Unfortunately I didnt enjoy this dish, it was quite bland. I followed the recipe but adjusted down the cream but overall found it bland.

  • Made this for dinner last

    Submitted by Nettle90 on 27. April 2016 - 08:48.

    Made this for dinner last night and it was delicious!! Everyone went back for seconds and it has already been requested next week as well. I added a tad extra of the ingredients as well as a fried chorizo sausage and it worked well with the amount of cream. Thanks for sharing!
