Notes
hints and tips
Taste the storks for cooking as they are the hardest part! You should be looking for soft texture which will melt in your mouth, no crunch needed.
For added freshness squeeze a lemon wedge on top before serving!
Make sure the garlic is golden when infusing your oil. If the garlic is too dark will give a bitter taste to the dish.
In that case i suggest to take a clean pan and start again.
