My household really loves this one. I tried adding some garam masala to the flour mixture (I know that sounds weird, but it's really just sweet spices plus pepper), and that came out so well, I've written it in to stay. Another time I baked it with cubes of acorn squash in the gravy, and that was ok too, but I wouldn't do it every time.
