  1. made this, but we didnt like it. The tomato flavour was overpowering, and the texture a little lumpy. Obviously just not to our taste. Wont rate this, as its a good easy recipe, and 2 stars would make people think it tasted awful! which is not the case.

We now reside back in England after returning from Australia after most of our working life there. I have been fortunate enough to have lived in many countries when I was younger and therefore many of my recipes reflect this! Love to cook. love to travel too
