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 vegetable oil for coconut oil.

    Excellent flavor! Next time I would use coconut rather than vegetable oil. Also I subbed Thais basil for the curry leaves since I have no fresh curry leaves. I wasn't really sure what to do with the lemon grass. The instructions seemed like I should just add it whole but I pounded it and sliced it lengthwise. The ginger prep instructions were unclear. The recipe said "crushed" so I pounded it in a mortar and pestle. I will make this again.
