The famous IKEA meatball sauce – the real reason people go to IKEA !!
The queues in the Ikea food hall used to say it all. They may of not doing anything else (although their fry ups were great value for money). Everyone loves their meatballs & the sauce it came with, again even though you wouldn’t expect it this is a good food memory of mine. The sauce…
Pav Bhaji Masala – heavenly ❤️
