    "We struggled with this pastry - very crumbly even with half an egg! Perhaps it should have gone in the fridge for a while even though it says you can use it straight away? We used a silicone muffin tin as this was all we had and apart from 2, the rest came out perfect. Very pleased with the end result."

    "Very easy to make but wasn't overly keen on the taste the sun dried tomatoes added. Think next time I will try to make the authentic individual Greek spinach pies which don't have this ingredient. "

    "Made these for christmas gifts and they've gone down a treat! Someone even said I should sell them! Swapped the cherries for dried cranberries as I prefer them and also I thought they were more christmassy! Am glad I bought enough ingredients to make double the recipe as I'll be making them again this weekend! Thanks Good Food - loved this recipe!"

    "Really enjoyed this quick, tasty recipe. Had plain couscous in the cupboard so used this instead - should've added some lemon zest to add to the flavour but will do this next time. Herb I chose was thyme and didn't think it went so well so will try another. Fillets were quite thick so needed almost 20 mins. Will definitely be cooking this one again! "
