"Thanks to previous reviews I used chopped olives instead of whole olives, and replaced the salty stock with a less salty one at the last minute. It worked and reminded me some casserole dishes I had in Spain and Portugal before. I'd say the lemon wasn't necessary at all, since there were already enough of flavours from tomatoes, chorizo, and olives. Great with cous cous, bread, or even boiled potato. "

"This is so tasty and just the same as what we had at a morrocan restaurant the other day. Did it exactly to the books but used chicken thighs with bones, which made the soup/gravy a whole lot more flavoursome. Very easy to make too, which is a bonus!"

"This was YUM. I used electric mixer to make the white sauce when I made it the second time. Definitely a lot easier and the texture was smooth in no time!"

Apricot & blueberry crumble cake
12 comments
"I made this cake a few times now and the very first time I read the recipe wrong and tip the yoghurt and all fruits in with the batter. I actually liked it better. Not only the cake was more moist but the presentation was better. (My crumble turned out to be a lot less, more brown in colour, and more greasy on the second two attempts. Also the yoghurt didn't look that alluring as the photo. It looked rather dry). In saying all these this cake is still very tasty and not very difficult at all (so long the recipe was read correctly)."

Spiced herb & almond couscous

"This recipe has a bit more ingredients than what I would normally do with Couscous, but it went perfectly with the meal and I will surely make it again!"
