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.

    Delicious!! But be sure to take the time to caramelise the onions properly as it really adds to the flavour. Served with rice and a grated carrot and raisin salad.

    This is the first recipe I've tried in this book and it is FANTASTIC. I love fish curries and I've tried many over the last couple of years and this is the one I have been waiting for. My whole family liked it, including my children. I used ghee instead of vegetable oil but otherwise followed the recipe. I used paiche for the fish and the texture was amazing. Also, read the "cooking with onions" tutorial on page 11.
