    Quite tasty, although I found it very watery once the cream had gone in. However, I did not have true single cream, only Elmlea single cream (30% less fat than normal single cream) so that may have been the problem

    Not very exciting. Easy enough to make though.

    Not very exciting. Easy enough to make though I won't be making it again. I found the spinach superflous really.
