Adapted from a recipe in the Tefal recipe booklet, page 8.
This recipe is from the Tefal recipe booklet included with their model of BBQ/broiler, printed in 1987. This can also be prepared in a toaster oven with top and bottom heating element. This recipe sounds very good, on my to make and taste list.
