Hi Graham
Just to let you know this was a great hit at our ladies’ function and the guests wanted seconds and wanted the recipe!
I made it with low-fat evaporated milk instead of cream for a lower fat version (as suggested in my low GI recipe books)and it still tasted great.
Fantastic Anne-marie, always good to have a low fat substitute, in fact I was paging through a weight watchers recipe book last night and will be trying out a few… Summer is coming and the beach is calling… Thanks for letting me know G
Sounds great! I need to make something like this for a function. How many servings will one get from these quantities, please?
Hi Ann-marie, Finally back in beautiful Cape Town… This serves 4 people, but very simple to multiply out for many. Cheers for now G
Hi Graham
Can you substitute the kernel with something else?
Sure you can, try peas for a change. Have a great weekend. G
