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

  • Eat Your Books

    Can substitute semi-skimmed milk for coconut milk.

  • London_Mummy on October 10, 2025

    I made this to use up some semi-skimmed organic cow's milk, which was about to turn sour, and some herbs which one of my sons had bought and not finished. I also had to use sweet potatoes instead of butternut squash. It came out very flavourful and was a hit with my daughter, who wrongly guessed it was butternut squash, carrot and swede and could not guess the herbs and spices.
