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.

    Spicy Eggplant Stew with Potatoes, Mushrooms and Chickpeas - p 186 I had such high hopes for this recipe. We absolutely love each of the individual components of this dish so I imagined that the combined result would be outstanding. Sadly, this dish was less than the sum of its parts and was just meh for us. In the spirit of full disclosure I must share that I used plenty of Basil in place of the cilantro but otherwise, I followed MJ’s ingredients and instructions to the letter. This was such a disappointment that we even chucked the leftovers. Something we just never do. The poor eggplant melted away during the 40 minute simmer and everything just melded together to form a dull, uninspired mush with the chickpeas providing the only textural variety. Pity. I definitely can’t recommend this one.
