    I really wanted to make the coal roasted cargols that are found all over Andorra, in fact, some may say it should be the national dish as they are loved there. I could not find live snails to make the dish but did find a recipe that is made from canned escargot and with mushrooms another very commonly found item in the Andorran diet. The result…. a lovely appetizer!
