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 made this to accompany the lamb biryani, omitting the fresh green chili and cayenne pepper so it wouldn't be spicy (my Kashmiri chili powder is mild). It went well with the biryani, but I thought there was too much tadka relative to yogurt - too many seeds for my taste, plus it tasted slightly burnt (which could be my fault, but I did try to follow the directions). Also note that the carrot called for must be absolutely enormous to weigh 8 oz; for me several carrots were required.
