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.

    This was good, but nothing too exciting. It’s called a chili garlic sauce, but it’s a sweet buffalo sauce.

    This was excellent. I did not find it too sweet, but it probably depends on your chili paste. I agree it doesn’t feed 4 adults, 3 servings at our house. It does need the toppings. I didn’t have scallions so I used French fried onions and omitted the nuts. Will definitely make again.

    We liked this. The sauce initially seemed too sweet, but combined with the slightly bitter eggplant it was perfect. I think the crunchy topping are essential for the added texture. I would make this again.

    This was pretty tasty if a little one-note. The sweet-hot chili glaze is quite sweet as well so be warned if that's something you're averse to. Also, this doesn't make enough for four people. Between the two of us, we ate it all.

    Another low-effort, unbelievably high-reward recipe from this book. The sweet-hot chili glaze is almost drinkably good, and the combination of custardy eggplant, roasted tofu, and crunchy scallions, radishes, and scallions is...well, I'm making myself hungry as I type. Make this one already!!
