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.

    Really wanted to make this sandwich but couldn't get fresh figs, so I bought a nice fig compote instead. It was delicious, the flavours all worked together very well. I'm not totally sold on the method of melting the butter and oil in the pan rather than just directly buttering the outside of the sandwich though.

    This was really nice and super easy. Would make again. The fig was a nice twist

    The “good white bread” for me is my day-old home loaf. Oh my, this is so good. Not too often though! This is my favourite grilled cheese sandwich - no question about it. I make it extra savoury with a light spread of mayo-full fat inside and out.

    I have not bought the book yet but watching the show on BBC. This just looked totally delicious on the show and I follow Nigella on Twitter so have seen all the comments about this toasty - mostly people who can’t find figs and are looking for or have made replacements! Hubby managed to get figs, although he tells me they had to go look in the back for them. Very tasty but the amount of butter and oil required in the pan is a bit off putting. I will make again traditional toasty style which will still not be healthy but healthier! I’m kind of glad I didn’t really like this - just not worth the calories.
