    Delicious, really easy and quick to make children and husband loved it. The garlic yogurt is easy to do and makes the dish that extra bit special.

    This looks great, can't wait to try it, but where did the saffron get into the stock?

    Very tasty and simple. Garlicky yogurt is great idea. We added saffron to the ready stock about 10 minutes before using it.
