This was really easy to make. It was rich with a slightly sweet taste. My vegetarian friend has already downloaded the recipe. Will definitely make it again

It sounds like this veggie dish was a real hit, Ruth - we're really happy to hear that you enjoyed the sweet and tangy taste, and found it nice and simple to cook, too!
