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.

    Can substitute vegetable bouillon cubes for chicken bouillon cubes.

    OMG!!!! This was delicious. Nothing like I’ve ever eaten before. That being said, 3 hours from start to finish of continuous prepping and cooking. But soooo worth it!

    I'd simplify this by not frying up your own red onions and buying those, but frying isn't my forte. There are several other components that need fried. The potatoes are quite filling and I think it generally tastes better the next day.
