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

    Really good! Basically you brown ground meat (I used chicken) then glaze it with one tablespoon each of brown sugar (muscovado in my case), soy sauce, and fish sauce. It is served with carrots, cucumbers, chiles, lime wedges, and fresh herbs, I used mint and Thai sweet basil. The basil was divine but the mint wasn't to my taste. Next time I will just use the basil. When I taste tested the meat I thought it was tasty but not exciting. However once I put it all together I thought it was really delicious. I did reduce the fish sauce a tiny bit to maybe 2/3 a tablespoon and added a splash more soy and that worked well.
