So simple & delicious!!

I wasn’t sure at first about the lettuce but I liked it and so did my picky husband. I used green onions and shallots.
it’s like being at a cafe in Paris! yum
a keeper for us! i made it with vegetable stock since we do not eat meat. it turned out perfect and it was quick to make. everybody loved it (including our meat eater friends and asked for the recipe. i will definitely make it again.
This recipe is adjusted to 1/2 the amounts. She was having six for dinner on the show.
This was delicious and flavorful. I had some left over so I used it for lunch the next day and added extra stock to it to make it into a soup. So good!
The recipe says to add 3T butter and some garlic oil, no amount given. It looked like Nigella had more than 3T of butter in the pan. I added 4T and equal amount of oil. Nigella added 1 cup hot chicken stock on the show, FN recipe says to add 1/2 cup. She said on the show to cover and cook 15 – 20 minutes until vegetables are soft, FN recipe says to leave uncovered and just simmer until liquid is reduced. I combined the two directions and made it the way Nigella made it on her show, then took off lid and reduced liquid. It came out wonderful. Why does FN change recipes?
This is a keeper my family loved this recipe it’s so easy and taste delicious.
Thanks again for making me look good in the kitchen.
Let me first say that i have not made this dish yet, will tommorow. I watched this show Saturday morning, plus, i also taped the show, and if anyone knows Butterhead Lettuce it’s the same as Boston Lettuce and she did not use those lettuce, she used Green Leaf Lettuce. Green Leaf Lettuce has more of a “Crunch” to it on the top than the Butterhead or Boston Lettuce. This is the only reason why i gave it a four stars instead of five, because she got it wrong. I will use Green Leaf Lettuce to this dish along with Basmati Rice,and the Italian Sausages (that i gave a review on in 2006). This too, will be a Keeper.
