"This was a very tasty soup. Knowing family preferences, I halved and sliced the leek and sliced the zucchini into smaller pieces. The potatoes were cooked in broth, as I don't use the cubes and I mashed only part of them. I used leftover turkey instead of chicken and ham. For half the recipe I used about 1/4 cup half-and-half and added a bit more ..."

"Very refreshing. I used lime sparkling water, which added just a bit more flavor. Like others, I did increase the amount of liquor. I made this with vodka, then with whiskey, and then with light rum. It was all good!"

"Really delicious. I loved the subtle taste of the cardamon - gave a healthy shake over the mix before I blended it. Instead of the milk and yogurt, I used kefir which I make at home and use for smoothies and other good things. Frozen mango chunks are always in the freezer and so this was something I can make on demand."

"I never thought I'd ever say this, but I actually found this a bit too rich! Mr Grumpy announced late last night that he was hungry and wanted soup. So I did not have time to bake the potatoes, but just diced and simmered them on the stove. The rest of the recipe came together very quickly and was ready at the point the potatoes was cooked. I used..."

"I saw this recipe and wanted it for supper tonight, so I made it on the stovetop. I sauteed the veggies in the butter, then sprinkled the flour over that. Stirred until it was absorbed, then slowly added the broth and the beer. I added a bit more pepper, a pinch of red pepper flakes which I felt added a nice touch, and also a couple of bay leaves...."

"We ended up fighting over the last dregs of soup - this is that good. And that's without the spinach, which I completely forgot about. The peanut butter is not really identifiable but adds a creamy undertone to the whole. The sweetness of the leeks and sweet potato, the spiciness of the harissa - this is just wonderful."

"I thought these were very good. I used three largish potatoes, which resulted in 9 good-sized pancakes. I am not sure what the yeast added. Mine was nice and bubbly and I let it all stand 30 minutes, but I just did not see any real effect. Perhaps it was just a bit too cool in the kitchen. Still, it all worked out very nicely. I did reduce the sal..."

"I really liked these patties. I used a little less beef than required, but still found the mixture to be dry and used a whole egg. Still dry, so I added a bit of kefir. The patties held together, but only just. No salt is listed in the ingredients, and while I cook very low sodium, I think you need some salt in this dish, so I added maybe 1 tsp or..."

"This is so much nicer than using Jello! You can, of course, use other wines and I had a little pink zinfandel left from making quince compote, so I used that. I sprinkled the gelatin right over the cold wine straight from the fridge and let it stand for 15 minutes or so - it will soften quite nicely, as well as come to room temperature. Instead of..."

"Quick and tasty. I used leftover pork roast, so I did brown it but did not marinate in soy sauce and cooked overall for a shorter period of time. I used sunflower oil instead of olive. I added some soy at the end. I also used just a touch of cinnamon - I have found that I don't care for it all that much, but just a hint works ok for us. I did add..."
