Grated some parmesan and used chili pepper flakes instead of pepper but otherwise followed to the letter. Everyone loved it!

Response from Quorn

We're glad everyone loved it despite using chilli pepper flakes. Well done!

This was great such a nice chance to the regular ways we use Quorn. I added extra lemon and think I made it perfect

We added some white wine and additional cream at the end because it seemed a bit dry. We didn’t keep any of the veggie broth but that would have worked too. This dish was amazing!
