      Hello Joy…there's no particular lemon juice. I used the juice of half a lemon (look at the ingredients pic). The white wine i used is alcoholic but you can use water instead or any liquid stock…U can find parsley in any good market around u. Just ask anyone that works there to show u.

    Chi chi, I am not encouraged by you and am not happy about that,I tried two of your foods and I sent you pictures and pings. Severally but it wasn't attended to and no reply, correction, or encouragement. But why?
