This dish is a lifesaver! I was actually panicking as my 3 guests were arriving in 30 min and I was running late from work. But this dish was so quick and easy to make, with time to spare!!! Best part was that it's so yummy. One of my personal fav recipes now. I used dried coriander flakes the second time round and while it still tastes great, I confess nothing brings out the flavour quite like the fresh ones! Thanks Elle for this inspiring recipe, I am thinking of trying this out with some slight variation in the form of curry powder and cream! Thanks!

Yum, certainly at least worth a few banana prawns dying for! I realised I only had sour cream on hand so instead used plain yoghurt which made a tasty and healthier substitute.

Fabulous recipe. Very easy to follow and quick cooking with amazing flavour. I was concerned about using a whole teaspoon of salt but it did seem to bring out the flavours. Thanks for posting a great recipe.
