"I added some cumin seeds to the onions and used stock instead of plain water to give it more taste. I also added red kidney beans to it at the stage when cauliflower is added, and left out the chickpeas of of the curry sauce. It worked well and was popular with (almost) all the family... there is no pleasing one of the children! "

"Great recipe. I used some of the suggestions in the comments above - roasting the squash first is definitely a good idea. I used about double the quantity of spice in the recipe (2tsp of chilli, 1 of cumin and 1 of oregano) and added about 400 ml of broth to make sure the quinoa had plenty of fluid to absorb. Will definitely make again, easy and very tasty. "

"I actually found that the chocolate mixture wasn't sweet enough. I think it might be because I used chocolate with high cocoa content - will try and add some sugar if I make it again. It set beautifully though. "

"lovely taste, but I have to say I too, like Julie's grub, had loads of custuard left, about half. Great taste and very good visually, I used them as starters at a dinner party. "

"Very good recipe, I have made it twice and it will become a family favourite. The second time I halved the quantity of chicken, and added a pepper and two courgettes, and it was even nicer."
