    Great starter and great flavours of garlic and chilli. Especially good with dry,crisp white wine.

    This was nice but didn't wow me the way Gambas pil pil does in a tapas bar.

    I thought these were great! Not too fussy; I made them an hour in advance and just put them in the oven as I needed them. I'd definately recommend them.

    I cooked these as part of a tapas menu at the weekend. They were very easy and very tasty. You need some crusty bread to mop up the juices too. I would make them again as they can be prepared in advance and just put in the oven when your guests arrive.
