But the results were divine.
Zana, this recipe sounds fantastic. I have overcome the oven dilemma in the middle of summer with a purchase of the Breville 800XL countertop oven. It is fantastic for lots of things like roasting vegetables, meats, tasting, baking, reheating, etc. The best part is, your house doesn't heat up like with a traditional oven. I love my Breville.
