  I added half a tsp of dry English mustard to the cheese and egg mix before baking. it went down really well as a starter at a dinner party for 8 people. Although this says it serves 6, it was plenty for 8 hungry adults as a starter

  I made this at the weekend and served it warmed ( after having chilled it to set first) with tomato salad. It was delicious but preferred it warm than cold. I also added some lemon thyme to add interest to the flavour which worked well.

  It was lovely and looked fantastic when it came out of the oven, but dropped in the tin. Should it have done? I think I would add maybe more cheese and some mustard like Lol did.

  Excellent- Cooked last night served warm for a summer dinner party. It was a total success. Plan to use it today as a buffet platter with it thinly sliced between slices of beef tomatoes, basil and the olive vinegrette.

  Made this as a veggie starter for christmas dinner last year. Put a layer of basil leaves and roasted red pepper in the middle before baking to make it look festive and serviced with spiced beetroot and orange chutney. Great make ahead starter, so good I've been asked to make it again this year.

  Made this for a dinner party with vegetarians. Veggies thought it was fine, but for me it was too dry and pretty tasteless, even though I did as suggested by others and added mustard and also a layer of roasted peppers. Would not make this again.
