Made this for dinner tonight!!! Super yummy!! It was a bit thin, so we ate it like soup! Thank you for sharing!!

Glad you enjoyed it! :blush: Did you use regular cream or HWC? The U.S. equivalent of thickened cream is HWC.

#4

I used HWC! That’s the only cream we keep in our house! :slight_smile:

I used google to translate grams to cups, but may have made some errors…

Yeah, it’s easy to do…come on over to the dark side with the rest of the world and go metric! :wink: Good point about the ml measurement to cups instead of fl.oz. it depends on your cup size as I think a U.S. cup is 235ml whereas a metric cup is 250ml. Either way about 1 + 1/4 cups of HWC and 3/4 cup of sour cream should do it. If you used those quantities, or thereabouts then all good!!

That’s the trouble! I did 1 1/2 cups of hwc… I’ll reduce it a bit next time!! Thank you!
