Very good really very good.... you need to enjoy sweet and savory, but I will definitely make this recipe again without any problem. I followed the recipe to the letter, there's nothing to complain about! -

SUPER A delight! Just as quick to prepare as to enjoy, and everyone loved it! Thank you My suggestion: I prefer to make the caramel "dry". I put the sugar in a saucepan without water and shake the pan from time to time without stirring to avoid incorporating air. -

too much "4 spices" I read "4 spices" and used one found in a tropical region, the real one, coming from a tree (not a mix called that which contains almost none of that spice), and with your proportions the flavor was too strong and overwhelming. My suggestion: I started over by reducing the amount. I used candied ginger, I did not cut the tenderloin before cooking to keep it tender but only after when I added it back with the vegetables. And this slightly improved recipe, in my opinion, allows us to enjoy all its flavors and we love it. Thank you for introducing me to it. -

So simple and so good If I had known it was this easy to make for an almost perfect result, I would have tried it sooner! Thank you for this recipe. -

Response to Lalie Lalie, to prevent the caramel from crystallizing, you need to set your saucepan over low to medium heat, no more, and add 2 or 3 drops of lemon juice. Thank you for testing my recipe!
