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.

    Can substitute lemons or sour green grapes for verjuice.

    Added an extra small onion because I didn't have leeks, but it was still really tasty. Raisins are optional, but I found that extra sweet helps round out the dish. Went well with the lentils, rice, and dried fruits dish also in the same book.

    Delicious. Uses many spices. I was expecting a thinner soup, low-calorie, but the recipe only calls for 1.5 cups of water, so it’s a quite hearty stew and would be good with rice like another reviewer recommends but is quite filling on its own. It’s also vegan if you don’t cook the optional raisins in butter.

    Yum. Perfect for winter - warm, tart, cozy. I added more chickpeas than called for and served over brown rice.
