Easy and quick to make. We ate it hot with fish and it was very tasty. - 12 Jun 2012
Fantastic. Made this for a BBQ yesterday. Very simple to make and happily had all ingredients ready to hand. I made double the portion as 10 mouths to feed. Every last spoonful was eaten and my husband who hates cold rice dishes, had seconds! Just about to send the recipe to my veggie sister as she will love this . - 02 Jul 2011
