Where is the liquid
Sorry, Kathy. It’s supposed to be ½ cup of water. I just added it to the ingredients.
Thanks for letting me know.
All the best,
Nancy
Are you sure it’s a 1/2 cup water, it seems a little dry?
Dorre it is enough water since this recipe also uses 1 can of tomato sauce. But, when finished, you could always add a bit more water, if desired.
My best,
Nancy
