    I followed the recipe except for the cashews, and it was wonderful! I'd definitely try fresh veggies next time, as I opted for a frozen veggie mix, which made them a bit mushy, but my roommies were definitely delighted. Cheers!

    Went down a treat. I used bags of asda mixed fresh veg - carrots, broccoli,green beans, corn cobs,leeks and cabbage. Even my veggie hating son ate most of them - amazing what a nice sauce will do!
