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.

    This cocktail is squarely in the dessert cocktail category and that’s the way I enjoyed it. My only quibble with the recipe is the banana purée. The recipe calls for 20 slices of banana or 1.5 cups. How thick are the slices supposed to be? The thinner I slice them, the more I can fit in the cup! I went with 1 med-large banana, cut into 20 slices and got just a little over the predicted 4 oz so I think 1 banana is a safe starting point. Secondly, I think 1/4 cup of oil is way too much. I used an 8-in cast iron skillet that accommodated the 20 slices in a single area and they were practically bobbing about in the oil. I tried draining the slices on a paper towel but the caramelized sugars stuck to the paper and I couldn’t get them off. I started over with banana #2 and just a thin film of oil and that worked fine. The purée is tasty stuff and I plan to try Maggie's suggestion to swirl some into plain yogurt.
