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.

    Very yummy, though spicier than I expected. Tasted so much like real chorizo that my niece thought that I had bought it. (Used ground pork, but would buy pork belly from the Asian store next time.)

    Outstanding chorizo recipe, no reason to buy Mexican-style chorizo again

    Really excellent! Much better than any I've purchased in the store. I used all pork belly as I had it on hand and will make sure to use at least half when I make it again.

    This was great! I used all pork belly and it was delicious, rendering the fat and getting nice and crispy.

    Fabulous! I used half pork belly and half ground pork and I"m glad I did because the fat renders out and makes this delicious sauce. It's not health food! It was too fatty to eat on its own, so I made some eggs, cut up some avocadoes and made burritos out of them, they were even better.

    Man this was good! Warmly spicy, meaty, juicy with little crispy bits. I made with the meaty end of a rib rack. It is not the first homemade chorizo recipe I’ve tried but I’d need some persuading to try another, this was so good.

    I love this!! Way better than the mystery meat you get in stores. Super easy too!
