    "I have just made this - thought initially that it would make quite a few pots but only managed to make 6. I followed the advice to soak the marrow in the sugar over night and ended up boiling it for up to an hour. My mum is making it with me and smiles with delight every time she has a sneaky taste. I think we're on to a winner. "

    "This was lovely. I did make a few changes to the recipe. I used up a tin of mandarins that I had in the cupboard instead of orange juice and the zest ( you do have to drain off some of the juice though or else it drips everywhere ). I also put in a bit of brandy whilst it was reducing which was yummy and I just so happened to have some in the cupboard! Served it with some custard. Clean bowls and big smiles all round a good sign me thinks. "

    "I made this the other night and it was delicious. I always put more ginger and often add mixed spice to anything like this which I think adds something. Try it!"

    "I really like risotto and made a version of this for my family including my traditional dad ( meat and potatoes please). Everyone liked it, I did add in some white wine at the beginning and before serving added in some cream and parmesan. Very nice. "
