Mum sent this recipe to me a few weeks ago and I decided to give them a go as she had raved about them so much. I went to the supermarket 3 times to get the pumpkin seeds, but on the last trip I had it in my head that I needed sunflower seeds! When I went to make them I realised I had the wrong seeds, but decided to give them a go anyway and they were fantastic, even with sunflower rather than pumpkin seeds!
