    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?

    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.

    i only caught the tail-end of the episode so when i read the recipe i was not prepared for that ingredient. while at the store, i looked for a comparable substitute and decided to use bok choy instead. yum! maybe i'll brave the lettuce next time.

    I never would have thought to put lettuce with frozen peas, but I love how it all tasted and it's such an easy recipe, plus pairs well with just about everything (at least just about everything I cook! : .

    incredibly easy to make, and it was WONDERFUL. I made it again the next day, but used spinach instead of the butterhead lettuce and it turned out just as well. such great flavor and texture!

    Who'd have thought that a few simple ingredients could taste so darn good when combined! Will never make peas any other way!!
