This recipe is a waste of time. The sauce was bland, and the rabbit was tough.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my rabbit turned out dry and tough. I think I might have overcooked it.

This recipe was way too complicated. I ended up giving up and ordering takeout.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce didn't turn out as thick as I wanted it to be. I ended up adding some cornstarch, and it helped.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices, and it was much better.

I'm not a huge fan of rabbit, but this recipe was really good. The sauce was amazing, and the rabbit was cooked perfectly.

This was a delicious and easy recipe to follow. I used chicken thighs instead of rabbit, and it turned out great. The sauce was flavorful and the chicken was tender and juicy.

This Andorran Cunillo was a hit with my family! The rabbit meat was tender and flavorful, and the tomato sauce was rich and tangy. I served it over rice, and it was a perfect meal.
