  I've never used cloves but I have made a similar recipe adding a good tablespoon of garam masala and this is really pleasant will try this one - looks tempting

  Really nice recipe, added a bit more chilli for a good kick and had it as a side dish with a Pork Chop. Nice and light and low in carbs, don't think the picture does it any justice !!

  I don't dislike green beans, but sometimes find them a little boring, and this recipe has made a refreshing change. I used fresh chilli, and added some courgette and enjoyed a very tasty dish

  This recipe was delicious, I added a large pinch of salt and sugar once the mixture was starting to warm through. Also, I didn't drain the tomatoes. Served with steak and jacket potato, it's definately a firm favourite.

  So delicious! I used passata as that's all I had in, and served with pasta. I've done a similar recipe before but with cinammon, think we prefer this one.
