    Wow this was lovely. I served it before the Sauage and spring mash pie, which can also be found on this site, which is another winner. I also added Tiger prawns to mine. I hooked them all around the rim of the dish, looked pretty and tasted soooo good. Im going to try the Spicy prawn soup next.
