“We don’t have access to a lot of different herbs and spices so that makes it hard to make a lot of things. This was easy to cook and all of the ingredients required were able to be purchased through our house buy-up.” “Tasty. Quick, easy to clean, fed a lot of people. Didn’t need to spend a lot of time on it. I added chilli, mixed herbs and lemon.”
