Hi Jon
Does this freeze well ?
Thanks
yes!
Wow this was gorgeous
Made it for the family twice now and everyone enjoyed it. My daughter actually ate broccoli for the first time as it was in this sauce
I would highly recommend and it’s easy to do
This was amazing, well worth spending money on the rose harissa. We will definitely be having this again soon

At first I wasn’t too sure if I should make this recipe, I wasn’t sure how spicy it would turn out to be but I needn’t of worried it’s delicious 😋
Love your back story Jon and follow you on Insta. Just tried the creamy Harissa chicken but used a fiery Harissa instead. Well down a treat with the family. Another great and easy recipe, so thank you for helping add healthy meals to our growing menu. 🙌👍
This is WELL nice! Make sure you put the whole head of broccoli in as it shrinks and I regretted only adding 2/3rds. Lovely! 😋
