That looks like it has just resolved what I am going to be making for dinner to eat in front of a roaring fire tomorrow night - with the addition of some hot, fresh bread!  Thanks for posting that recipe.

Thanks for bumping this- it was delicious with a generous amount of chilli, a dollop of sour cream or yoghurt and some chopped coriander.
Mine wasn't cooked after 20 minutes - it needed almost double that time.
