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.

    We made this along with a couple of other recipes from the book (repeats both, the sukuma wiki and the mukimo with onions and (not) greens). We had a one pound bag of frozen baby limas so used part in this dish and then cooked the rest separately to add to the mukimo in lieu of the canned beans. This was good, easy, and a nice spicy contrast to the other dishes. Would repeat.
