    "I guess you could just use vegetable stock instead. I always use veg stock in all my recipes if my veggie friends come over."

    "These were so easy to make. Done in minutes. I grilled them for about 5 mins each side and served them with pitta bread and a yogurt, cucumber and mint sauce and salad. yummy! Would definitely do again. The time-spent-in-kitchen:taste ratio is fantastic."

    "I followed the geletine packet instructions for quantity as i've been caught out before by not adding enough. I figured they should know how much of their product would be needed and I added another couple of sheets for good measure but it still didn't set. I ended up using 7. I've since read in a cookbook (Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall) that melon sometimes contain an enzyme that stops it setting jelly. Obviously it can be done as MsVanDeKamp has managed it (and photo above) but I failed. Hope everyone else has better luck."

    "I also churned this in my ice-cream machine thinking it would make it smoother but as it started out pulpy the finished result wasn't smooth. Also once it had been in the freezer for a while the sorbet falls apart when scooped (because of the pulp??). Any ideas anyone? Have to say though, it still tastes lovely (just looks more like a granita in the bowl)."

    "This is quick and easy and so yummy that even though we'd eaten enough we were coming back for more. I couldn't find moroccan seasoning so improvised with the spices I already had having found out what goes into it from the internet. I served it with green veg."
