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.

    I thought this was quite spicy, but the flavour was nice all the same. Topping made the dish special. Probably will nog make again since there are many dhal recipes to try.

    I found this only ok. I preferred the sweet potato dhal, which came out with a more complex flavor for me.

    Yum...even without the sauce. Make sure adjust temp when cooking brown butter sauce so doesn't get too crispy! Ha!

    This dinner was amazing. I love that I keep hitting homeruns with recipes from this book. This one was so simple and easy, and like the other two commenters mentioned, the sauce changes the game.

    I'm with Emily. That topping made the dish!!! Delicious. I love dal of all kinds and this was super tasty!

    We liked this soup a lot--the browned butter topping really makes it (the soup by itself is relatively bland). I must be greedy, but I wished that there was more topping to go around (not butter, pe se, but the stuff in the butter). Only thing I changed was to use fresh turmeric instead of dried, since that's all I had around.
