For those of you who watch the Big Bang Theory, the Sheldon in my life simlpy reviewed this as 'splended', and coming from him thats worth a thousand words of praise. I followed the recipe as far as I was able- I did however add a dollop of honey, and i didn't have any cornmeal. No Cornmeal?? I nearly flipped my lid, but in the end I had to use cornflour. For anyone in the same situation, there is no taste difference. Trust me, my fella would have said so ;P Thanks Nicole!

I asked my fella to rate this and he said: 'MMM! Four and a half!" I decided to rate up instead of down for how easy it was; and out of relief. I wasn't so sure about this one as i cooked it (Boiled funny, chicken didn't brown as it usually does) but everything was a-ok! (Psst- flour works for cornmeal and the syrup in a can of pinapples works for pinapple juice!)

This is the first dish I've made on Allrecipes! Well, I want to give 3 stars, but that wouldnt be fair for several reasons. For one, our tomatos havent come in yet, so i used tinned ones, somthing the reviewers warned against. For another, I thought the tomato taste was WAY to strong, but that's my fault for following a reviewers advise and letting it simmer for four hours. Also, where i wanted to have a few sips and throw the rest in the sink, my friend had two bowls. So while it wasnt good enough for me personally to give it another go, it more then likey somthing due more to my own tastes then the recipes integrity. I used: 10 bay leaves, 2 cans of Tomatos one large can (850) ml of Tomato juice 1 cup of heavy cream 1/2 a cup of butter + four hours of simmering the tomatos and juice
