  1. This looks really tasty and perfect for the damp winter evening we are having here in the UK. As a non-meat eater I am looking forward to making this.

    1. Thanks. Yes, you'll have to let us know how you get on. I agree the recipe sounds tasty, but the jury is out for me on Gnocchi.

      I have eaten it, I'm not sure how partial I am to it.
