It was tasty - if quite gently flavoured. The amounts are way off though - I doubled the amount of spinach and reduced the potatoes a little, and it fed two of us nicely with some couscous on the side. So if you are expecting to feed 4-6 as it says they will be left very hungry!

question

How much garlic are you supposed to add? There is no mention of it in the ingredients list. And a 1/2 of what of coriander? The measurement is missing.

Hi, thanks for your question and for spotting this. We're just looking into this but in the meantime, if you want to make the dish, you can use 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped or crushed. The fresh coriander is just to garnish, so you can use a small handful, or less if you prefer. We hope that…
