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 thought this was a good way to enjoy five spice powder. I subbed bok choy for celery, since that is what I had on hand. I cooked the pork for about 10 minutes, but next time I would check it at 8 minutes.

    I found a 2-pack of Neiman Ranch boneless porkchops that were nearly a pound and almost 1" thick, so I sliced them in half for this recipe (quite nice and marbled, too). Don't know why I wasn't as enamoured of this dish as my husband was, but there you go! I will repeat it for him, and it was a quick recipe for weeknight cooking. I only cooked the pork for 10 minutes instead of the suggested 30.

    delicious, but be careful not to overcook the pork. 30 min. is way too long.
