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.

    One of my favorites, I use it as a guideline now rather than strictly following the recipe .

    Ours came out much more fishy than expected, but we were using a new-to-us brand of fish sauce.

    Delicious. Had to keep tinkering to get the right balance.

    Delicious & so easy.

    The vegetarian variation is SO good, it tastes pretty much identical to the fish version.

    I made this with lemons instead of limes, and turned out great. I appreciated the instructions on how to make this sauce more/less assertive.
