Substituted buttermilk with 1 cup milk + 1 tbsp lemon juice. Leave to curdle for at least 5 min, stir before using. No oregano, so replaced with basil and sage instead. Squid turned out really yummy (did not become soggy when cooled) - next time will use oregano as well.

No mixer, so I followed the instructions exactly (although I DID sieve the flour and salt) with a strong arm and a wooden spoon. Also I ran out of baking sheets, so I used a doubly-folded aluminium foil aheet on top of a tray instead. Puffs turned out perfect - keep in mind that they will swell to three times in size - a heaping tablespoonful will give you a bun-size one-per-person type puff, while a heaping teaspoonful will give you the smaller, French-type profiterole size. I split the puffs and filled them with vanilla ice cream. Drizzle with chocolate before serving (optional). UPDATE - heaping tablespoonfuls bake in 20 minutes exactly, teaspoonfuls in 15 minutes. Used a toothpick to poke a hole in each puff while they cooled on the wire racks. None deflated, all perfect.

Very easy. I doubled the recipe, followed it exactly then mixed in 3/4 cup of chop chips. Sprinkled the remaining 1/4 cup of choc chips on top before baking. Texture was perfect. Used two 7-inch round trays, and because of the thickness I had to increase baking time to 45 minutes
