About me: I love cooking, I love eating, I love discovering new recipes. I have so many cookbooks I sometimes lose track of which recipe is where - though this site helps a bit. I have gone low-carb in 2010, so that's different recipes to explore again. This also means I may not agree with my own reviews anymore if they were written in 2009 or before. ------------------ I have a lovely husband and ten-year old twins who also love eating. ----------------- You can also find me on LibraryThing, BookMooch and EatYourBooks, using the same handle.

I put the anchovies in with the meat instead of in the parsley, and that worked very well - they melted into the sauce.

Nice but not special.

A very good flavor. I just thought it was slightly overcooked. Next time I'll shorten the oven time.
