The problem with this recipe is that it appears in the vegetarian listings, but it contains parmesan. Parmesan is not suitable for vegetarians - it is always made with animal rennet. To make it vegetarian, the ingredients should be amended to "vegetarian hard Italian cheese (Parmesan-STYLE)".

I make mine very similar.. only I use olive oil in place of butter and add fresh ground black pepper.
