    I added lemmon juice so the spicy flavour got enhanced. It's great, we all loved it - 4/16/08

    This was pretty good. I didn't read that it goes over pasta until the end (I'd already made a potato side to go with it) so I just had it plain and it was very tasty. - 3/24/08

    This is fairly easy to make and excellent to eat! The flavors combine and make it so good, slightly exotic, and great for a fancy meal for company. It is a definite "make it again" for our family! - 3/13/07
