Mmm. Well i liked the ingredients, but decided to play a little. Used chicken joints. Added lemon juice to the mixture and a little water or you´ll never blend it. Upped the Cumin to a small tsp. Just used a knob of butter and plenty of olive oil. End result? Very nice. And served with sliced potatoes with onion, olive oil, S & P, and a dash of rosemary baked as the chicken
