Full marks from me. It's not really bad at 32% fat but I always cut it where ever I can so I used (for a single serving) 1 teaspoon of olive oil for the butter, fat free evaporated milk for the cream and skipped the pesto only because I didn't have any. It's just delicious with deep and high notes of flavor that all blend beautifully. How can you beat 25 mins for a restaurant quality dinner.
