"Love this! I couldn't get chipotle paste in time to make this (apparently Waitrose stock it, but there isn't one near me so will have to pick some up next time I'm near a big one), so instead I used double the amount of regular chilli from a tube (lazy I know, but it works!). I say double, but I quartered the recipe to make 4 individual portions as I only have a tiny freezer. Bloomin lovely, and am planning on having this again this week. "

"Absolutely gorgeous! Swapped black olives for green ones as I prefer them, and served with rice as I hate couscous. Froze in portions and reheats really well, although I did add a touch more water. Definitely doing this one again!"

"I absolutely love this dish. I make it at least every other month, and I must admit to freezing it in portions. I do this by portioning out at about 15 minutes, so that I can reheat without it overcooking into mush. Absolutely, bloomin LOVELY."

"Loved this. I found I needed to add a fair but of water over the time to stop it burning. Made it for presents and a whole jar was demolished in one sitting with some ham. Absolutely gorgeous - I'll be making another batch just for me..."

"Just made a batch of these. Left out the salt as suggested. Made stars instead of hearts as I needed them a little smaller to fit the jars I've bought. Gave them 15 mins in a fan oven but may well reduce by a couple of minutes next time. I also used Fox's glacier fruits. I used non stick baking sheets, and oiled one sheet slightly less than the other. This one meant the biscuits stuck, and we ended up eating these bits ourselves so no harm done! Be brave with your oiling and it should be fine. Making more on Thurs! Lovely flavour v pretty."
