  This was nicer than we expected, and my 2 year old, who is extremely fussy, did eat it. It didn't blow us away, but it was perfectly good and easy to make.

  Really nice comfort food supper and a great way to use up leftover veg. I added frozen soya beans instead of peas. Little bit more bite than peas, but good.

  Unfortunatley we found this dish took ages to cook and when it was finally ready it was bland and rather disappointing. Not really worth the effort and made gallons to much as well which then got wasted. Shame

  Tried this recipe in class, went over as it takes forever to add stock, but I loved it. I was the only person to eat it as the rest of my group didn't want to try it, but it was tasty and my favourite recipe in my binder :)

  This is lovely, comfort food. My 6 year old ate it happily with no fuss, and it was super easy to make. I changed parsnip for swede. Be warned that this makes loads, I would say it could easily feed 3 adults.
