"This is absolutely easy and totally delicious. Cooks itself, really and tastes like you have been slaving away for hours. Charmaine Solomon's paste is available in some Sainsbury's. Yum!"

"Just made this for my son's birthday. Easy to make and timings were fine. Quite dense and beautifully chocolatey. If I made it again however I would add some alcohol sprinkled over the layers (tia maria or kahlua probably) - it was very rich. Ended up by leaving out the white chocolate icing, had terrible trouble melting the white chocolate in the microwave, it went too thick and gloopy and split the piping bag! Any suggestions folks? Ganache thickened up wonderfully with twenty minutes in the freezer once cool, followed by a quick stir! Looked beautiful once adorned with long gold and silver candles. Will definitely make again (especially an alcoholic version for grown ups to serve with pouring cream). "

"Made this as Sunday lunch today, but as I had no thyme substituted rosemary and garlic. It was beautiful, meltingly tender, and though I worried about there not being enough sauce, or the sauce drying out, a wonderful, copious amount was revealed which tasted just delicious. Fabulous and definitely one for my repertoire. I'll seriously think about not roasting leg of lamb again!"
