Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Avocado and broad bean mash; Butterbean mash with muhammara; Oven chips with oregano and feta; Squid and red pepper stew; Rose harissa chickpeas with flaked cod

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 corn tortillas or pitta bread for tortillas.

    Just made a sandwich with pulled pork with all the flavors!

    Disappointingly bland. Even with the the sauce it was a shameful waste of ingredients.

    This recipe is a winner! I followed the recipe to the letter and was thrilled with the outcome. They are so flavorful! Served it with a quick chopped salad of avocado, cucumber, red chili, lime juice, salt and olive oil.

    We really like this recipe as alternative to burgers. Easy and delicious.

    This was a "like not love" recipe for me. Contrary to another comment, I think I would add more tahini next time in order to taste it more, and also more pomegranate molasses. I think for me these lacked a bit of zing, some lime or coriander or something was needed to pep them up.

    A really easy and fun recipe. I served it with the Sumac Yogurt Sauce on p 217. The leftover wedges reheated nicely in my convection toaster oven.

    This was really nice but I'm not sure the gram measurements are completely right. I was weighing out the tahini and got to 70g and it was already way more than 1/3 cup, so I stopped and didn't add the last 20g. I could definitely taste the tahini and the other flavours were slightly muted, so I'm guessing 70g was way too much! That said it was a lovely dish and I will make sure to measure the tahini by volume next time round.
