Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I agree with twoyolks that this seemed to be missing something. I felt that there should be more spice though the caramelized onions, almonds and cilantro on top helped. I made a mistake when making it as I added the rice and saffron to the vegetables to cook, rather than cooking the rice separately and then baking in the oven with the vegetables. I don't think that would have affected the flavor though, in fact it may have been blander doing it the correct way. - Jane

    This was not particularly flavorful for an Indian dish. It also felt like it was missing some form of richness to it.

    This one went off without a major hitch. The rice stayed fluffy, the curry was distinctly fragrant, and the meal came together with relative ease.
