Basmati rice pilaf with raisins (Bariis) from In Bibi's Kitchen: The Recipes and Stories of Grandmothers from the Eight African Countries that Touch the Indian Ocean (page 87) by Hawa Hassan and Julia Turshen

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Ma Halima’s beef suqaar; Somali beef stew; Curried pigeon peas (Ambrevades au curry)

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.
