Notes
- *Please note that nutrition information is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- For recipes like this one where the garlic will remain raw, I split the garlic clove down the middle and take out the core that runs through the centre. The sharp, onion-like taste of the core is mellowed with cooking, so for these recipes, I remove it.
