  Tried this recipe but found the amount of balsamic vinegar was too overpowering and made the dish taste bitter. Will try again but will reduce the balsamic to a few table spoons.

  Far too much vinegar, had to drain off most of the juices and make a gravy to add to the meat then cook for a further 20-25 mins to try and reduce the taste of vinegar. Not recommended!

  Although I like balsamic vinegar, the flavours in this dish weren't to my taste - not sure if it was the carrots with balsamic. I'd substitute them with something else, may be peppers and courgettes, if I made this again.
