Background

Frogs’ legs Provencal is a famous French dish, which is very easy to make at home. In some supermarket you can now buy cleaned and ready-to-cook frozen froggy legs, so why don’t you try this recipe? You can use white wine instead of lemon juice, if you like. Also, if gluten is an issue - use rice flour, if dairy is a problem, just use olive oil. It’s absolutely delicious and perfect for parties, dinner parties or as nibbles with drinks.
