A 10 star recipe........I adored the smoky flavours of the sun-dried tomtatoes in this dish...it was just right! I only used half the ingredients, there are only two of us here at present - and I have lots of PAC recipes to get through! Nevertheless, it was the flavour that counted - although a smaller quantity was not so photogenic! We ate this for a light luncheaon dish, with French Bread and salad....I plan to make it again for guests and the Christmas Buffet table! Thanks YaYa....just BRILL!! FT:-)
