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

Accompaniments: Meatballs in Arab-spiced tomato sauce (Kafta bil bandoura); Lamb and yogurt stew (Shakriyah)

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 and heavily spiced. Served alongside the lamb meatballs and it was a nice pairing.
