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.

    I made this with wild pheasant my husband shot, which I had only attempted to cook once before (by braising) and turned out tough and dry. This recipe gave me hope! I think wild pheasant may be tough and dry (compared with chicken) no matter what. But brining the pheasant and wrapping it in pancetta made a world of difference. The sauce was incredibly flavorful.
