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 butter for ghee.

    This meal is warm, comforting, and pretty straightforward to make, but it's not very tasty. The spices did not come through, and I found it needed lots of salt and pepper. Plain but comforting, it would be ideal the night before a long run or for bad stomachs.
