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.

    Can substitute dry white wine for dry vermouth.

    I cheated with adding some instant microwaved rice at the end. It worked well, I liked the flavour the dry vermouth added. All in all I think this is a three star dish - it is quick (especially with my cheat), pleasant and comes together well. However it is not more than the sum of its parts - tastes exactly has you would expect it to and whilst nice not overly creative.

    Made this recipe because of the positive notes below, and because I had all the herbs in the fridge. Very easy, could use a little more spices: mint and chili. A week night success though.

    Jane's note caught my eye and I had all the ingredients. I doubled the recipe and followed Jane's suggestion and put the lid on for most of the cooking time. We really enjoyed this, child included!

    This was a good weeknight dinner. Although the recipe didn't say to, I covered the pan half way through as the liquid was disappearing quickly. At the 20 minutes mark it was perfectly cooked so I was glad I did. I think the feta cheese is essential as I found the pilaf a little bland without it. This will be a repeat for me.
