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

Accompaniments: Stir-fried bean sprouts with chile bean paste (Suk ju); Sichuan peppered beef (Hei jiao niu rou); Fried eggplant with toasted sesame seeds (Kai ge)

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.
