I love the fact that it's a one-pot meal. I'm a newly single mom and there's just never enough time or energy to be cooking a lot. This makes it so much easier.

I think I will add this recipe to my regular cooking rotation. It's just that good.

This recipe is great for a beginner home cook. All the steps are easy to follow.

Since I'm a vegetarian, I made this recipe with soy and oat milk instead of regular milk and butter. It turned out really good.

This recipe definitely nabs the prize for the most time-consuming soup/stew recipe I have ever had to make. I spent close to three hours doing all the chopping and dicing, and preparing the roux. Even my arms are tired from all the stirring.

This is a really good budget recipe. I'll definitely make it again when I don't want to spend too much on groceries.

The flavor of this recipe is a little subtle for me so I'm thinking about adding a bit of lemon zest to give it a more zingy flavor.

The sauce was a bit grainy. I think next time I'll try using almond milk instead of the canned stuff. Or maybe I'll use a blender to combine the roux ingredients before adding them to the pot, to make sure it's completely smooth and creamy.

Unlike some other recipes, I didn't tweak this one at all; it was perfect as is. And it's great that the recipe only calls for ingredients that I already had on hand. It was a hassle-free, one-pot meal that I can make again and again.

My only advice is to make less of it next time. I ended up throwing away a bunch of leftovers.

This recipe is a keeper! It's now my go-to comfort food when I'm craving a warm, comforting meal.

I like to make one big pot of soup or stew and eat it during lunch for a few days. This recipe made so much that I got sick of it before I even started eating it as leftovers. Besides the quantity, it was also a bit on the salty side for my taste.

My Guyanese grandma would have appreciated this recipe. If you're Guyanese, this is a good base recipe that can be dressed up with other ingredients. For me, a Guyanese food enthusiast, I will definitely make it again, but will add some fish, okra, a

This dish was affordable to make and is a great meatless option. The only thing that was a bit challenging was peeling the tiny garlic cloves, but that was so worth it. The flavor of the sauce was so intoxicatingly good, I'm going back to buy more ga

Although this recipe says it's for cornbread dumplings, I made cornflour dumplings instead. They turned out awesome. Light and fluffy, swimming in a creamy sauce, what's not to like? My subs worked like a charm and I'll definitely make it again this

These dumplings were a bust! The taste was just 'meh' and they were too crumbly. Also, I didn't like the smell or taste of the raw roux; I'm not adding uncooked flour to my food again, yuck! The amount of peppers and onion overwhelmed the delicate fl

I'm not usually a fan of dumplings, but these were a pleasant surprise. They had a great texture and flavor, and the sauce was amazing. I liked that the recipe wasn't too complicated. I made it on a busy school night and didn't need any special cooki

Although my family is Guyanese, I had never tried cornbread dumplings before. Now I'll be making them every week. My mom taught me how to make traditional Guyanese callaloo soup, and the cornbread dumplings added a fun modern twist to this classic di

Wow! This recipe is a game-changer! I never thought cornbread and creamy, slightly sweet sauce could be a match made in heaven. The dumplings were soft and fluffy, while still maintaining a slight crunchiness that creates an interesting contrast with
