An easy all-in-one family dish

  • Preparation: 25 mins

  • 4 tbs Kikkoman Soy Sauce
  • juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tbs caster sugar
  • 1 onion finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed

What you do:

Garnish with some flat leaf parsley and squeeze over the juice from the roasted lemons and serve
