    I didn't find this bland at all! I think the amount of spices is just right.I made it for a light lunch for a Sri Lankan friend who likes heavily spiced food and she raved about it. It's a great way to get your kids to eat more veggies!

    I added half a teaspoon of Ras el Hanout and a teaspoon of lemon juice, plus thinly sliced courgette and celery. Serve with cous cous and it's delicious!

    This dish needed seasoning - so I added some sea salt, black pepper, Ras el Hanout, a bit more honey and sultanas (didn't have apricots) and it was much better.

    It was so so - my fiance sliced the mushrooms before I had time to tell him to quarter them and I think it affected the taste. Would try it again... I'm a fond lover of veggie food but this is the only dish I've ever eaten that I thought really lacked the meat!!
