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.

    Good, classic recipe! My meatballs lost their roundness during frying. I cheated and used canned whole Marzano tomatoes, then whirred it up with a stick blender to smooth it out. Also added some pasta water to thin it out some. Extra basil because I like it more herby. Would make again.

    Very good. The meatballs were pretty delicate so I had to be careful frying them. But the overall dish was tasty. I did use Mild Italian Sausage in place of regular ground pork.
