I originally found this recipe on the www.lovefoodhatewaste.co.nz website, and I just loved it... I had some neck chops in the freezer and had no idea what to do with them! The original recipe itself is from Jim Boswell, one of the original gluten-free chefs in New Zealand, which also caught my attention - a win-win in my books!
