I made some pasties a good few weeks ago, Cornish for the meat eaters in the household and veggie for the veggie (recipe at
http://studentsgrub.blogspot.co.uk). Unfortunately I didn't get all the ingredients and when it came to adding in single cream I realised I hadn't shopped as well as I should have done.
Luckily I had some Total Greek Yoghurt in the fridge so decided to use that instead of the single cream and I now think I have improved the recipe! (what did I hear my son say the other day HUZZAH)
I may well be converted to veggie pasties due to this slip up. Anyhow, story doesn't end there.
Being so excited at the taste I popped straight over to the TOTAL website and emailed my news. In return I was most kindly sent some split pots to try out and so I decided to add a review from each in the household to let you know just what they are like.
My review
(Here's how I eat mine)
a little compote with a little yoghurt
Thick and creamy yoghurt, enough for a really good snack as it is very filling. With my first taste (pot) I wasn't sure about the thickness of the yoghurt, a little too thick perhaps and on it's own it lacks lustre. The little pot of compote that accompanies the yoghurt, however, is too die for, raspberry and pomegranate heaven. When added to the yoghurt it changes it to a whole new experience on the tastebuds - yum. I was even considering asking for a pot of the compote on it's own but that would be pushing my luck, getting a delivery of these split pots and two large pots of Greek yoghurt alone is a real treat and very much appreciated. I have plans for the plain Greek yoghurt and will be trying some recipes out asap. I have to say the second pot that I ate today seemed better, taste buds know what to expect and I savoured each mouthful instead of my usual 'throwing it down my neck'.
Son's review
(Here's how he eats his)
mixed together in a creamy mess
1st pot - Yoghurt is too thick and on it's own it's too sharp but the compote is really yummy. "Do they do just the jam on it's own Mum?". Mixing it together is much better.
2nd Pot - The yoghurt is not that thick really, not if you mix both together.

(Eats his just as I eat mine!)
Nice but yoghurt is too thick, bit claggy. Lovely compote!
But the same end result for all 3
