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.

    I played around with the ingredients on this one a little because so many variations were given in the book. I basically used all of the ingredients listed here except that I couldn't find thin Chinese egg noodles. I found thin Chinese noodles but no egg in them. They were kind of bland--maybe egg noodles would have been better. I guess the only other alterations I did were: adding a few mustard greens and some shredded cooked chicken and using a lot of ginger--or maybe it was the suggested amount. I didn't really measure. But even with real chicken included, the result was just okay. *Edit. This is one of those recipes where the flavor improves greatly in the refrigerator. I wound up really enjoying this one during subsequent lunches.
