Introduction

For this recipe I used a slightly unusual spice – smoked paprika. If you have never used it before it different to normal paprika, which has quite a mild but warm taste – smoked paprika is generally hot as well as smoked. So use with caution!

This is a really simple recipe and will take only about 5 minutes work to prepare the ingredients – the rest of time is cooking time.
