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

Accompaniments: Rhubarb compote / roast rhubarb

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.

    Such a quick recipe and it turns out great. I've made it with the ingredients at room temperature and sometimes straight out of the fridge, and I don't notice any difference. Big fan of the liqourice sauce and even guests that don't really like liquorice enjoy the sauce too -it's quite subtle.

    Easy to make. Lovely soft texture. Not as dark as picture but consistency was good so didn’t want to cook longer. Not that keen on the liquorice sauce. Was good served with raspberries and a little crème fraiche

    This was great and easy to make. I made a simple strawberry sauce as the topping as licorice is too divisive in my house.
