I made this and followed the recipe exactly. It was fantastic, though a touch sweeter than I liked. That said, cutting the honey in half would probably be my only suggested change. Besides that, the spice was fantastic. I would also suggest that you toast the fennel seeds, that might be nice. Also, I may not have followed instructions on this point, I did grind the fennel and mixed it in. That point wasn't totally clear in the instructions.<br /><br />But all things considered, this dish was wonderfully spicey, and we had it with salmon, which was made with a home made pesto. Tons of flavor in both dishes, so I made some rather bland broccoli and red peppers roasted on the grill, very plain, just to balance the massive flavor in the other two elements of the dinner. Loved it!
