    You can use the recipe for Chile jam on p.184. Can substitute straw mushrooms or oyster mushrooms for button mushrooms, and light or dark brown sugar for palm sugar.

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.

    Everything in this book is simple, hence the name, but this recipe was the most simple yet. Finding the ingredients was the hardest part. We never did find the lime leaves and had to sub baby ginger for galangal. It was still delicious. The entire soup probably takes ten minutes to make. I tried to serve it as a standalone supper but it would be better with a carb such as a side of rice.
