"This is a really great idea for a super fast supper. The grated courgettes add a lovely new dimension to the basic carbonara. However I did change the recipe slightly. First I finely sliced a big onion into half moons which I softened slowly in a little olive oil until soft and sweet. Then I continued with the recipe. For 300g pasta I used two egg yolks and skipped the cream. The egg yolk just disappears into the pasta and makes a lovely light sauce. Cream is too heavy in carbonara for my taste. "

"I will make this one again and again. The tomatoes and tortellini are really child-friendly. My crew didn't even mind that the soup wasn't pureed as usual. I used a good stock made from a chicken carcass and a lot of vegetables. I think a good soup base is really important for flavour."

"We liked this a lot. It's very pretty and the combination of fruits is lovely. However next time I would use a lot more sugar in the fruit, it just wasn't sweet enough."

"I was a little sceptical about this. Ketchup with rice? But it works. And what a great way to use up cold roast meat (I had beef)"
