Loved this recipe, was so easy to prepare, as others have said I also used less mustard,but also used ginger and garlic paste and threw in some chilli flakes to give it a wee kick!! this sauce would also be delicious poured over chicken breast

Quick and easy for a midweek meal. Just make sure you half the amount of mustard, like other reviewers have said.

Delicious! Added less Djion mustard as other had suggested. I baked in individual dishes topped with graded cheddar cheese. Served with a garden salad and crusty bread for dipping in butter.

Followed the review posted previously and didn't add as much Djion mustard and the result was a quick, simple and delicious meal... Definitely one I'd do again when I need a quick meal.
