  An ok dish, Will make something similar in the future, but not very exciting. A recipe for when you need to use up those ingrediants in the fridge.

  I gave up eating creamy pasta's a long time ago because of the high fat content, so I couldn't wait to try this and it didn't disappoint. I thought it was delicious and so did the kids.

  I didn't have fresh basil so used a small sprinkle of dried basil. Also added white wine, used a mixture of creme fraiche and the supermarket's own garlic and herb roule, and used bacon the 2nd time I made it although it was delicious with ham too. Tasted delicious but my version probably wasn't quite as low-fat!

  Used creme fraiche in place of the cheese, spinach instead of the basil and skipped the ham. Nice and light, but does need a ton of seasoning to stop it from being bland. Will try it with the original ingredients next time as I imagine the smoked ham and basil would really help there.

  Yes, this is creamy, but it's really bland. I used lemon sole (had some left over that needed using) and added peas for some colour, plus natural yoghurt and white wine for the sauce. As per the other feedback, I added lots of seasoning but it was still very tasteless. Needs something punchier to bring in some flavour.

  very nice, used half cream half low fat Philly, added a stock cube as was suggested as worried about being bland, was nice but a bit salty so will leave the stock cube next time, will make again and adapt to what's in the fridge as really easy

  This is a very tasty recipe as long as it is well seasoned. I made it even healthier by using Philadelphia Lightest and low fat creme fraishe. I also swapped the mushrooms for petite pois as we're not the biggest fans of mushrooms in our household. Very nice!

  Great recipe. I followed the advice of adding creme fraiche and made the sauce for 4 although there were only two of us eating. I also reduced the leek volume and added plenty of seasoning. Delicious.

  Used cooked bacon instead of ham and found it very tasty. Chestnut mushrooms kept their firmness and worked really well with the leeks and bacon.

  Dinner on the table inside 15minutes, excellent. Think creme Fraiche would be just as good as Philly. Lots of seasoning required as others have said. Would a grind of nutmeg give this a lift?
