"Strong garlic flavor! Must serve immediately because by the next day it's rather dry. Wouldn't make it again...." See more"

"I would recommend using less than a tablespoon of garlic to anyone trying this recipe for the first time.

I hope it doesn't dry out overnight as I made it with the intention of having it for lunch tomorrow, but I don't see why the addition of a little olive oil couldn't remedy that problem."
