  it was quite nice but I found the lemon a bit over-powering. Not sure the lemon worked really. But I enjoyed it.

  I thought this was really quick and easy to make and tasted lovely. We halve the recipe and have it as a main meal with Rocket salad. (I use parmasan though, rather than gran Padano).

  Love this recipe, not only is it quick and easy, it tastes delicious! I often add prawns toward the end and halve it for a mid week dinner, or make the full amount and serve with salmon or chicken and it is great for a dinner party. Served with green salad and garlic bread it is just perfect.

  It works but tastes mind-numblingly bland and boring.
