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.

    Would make a great picnic dish! Sprouts are nice because they get a little sweet when roasted, which balances all the flavors.

    This recipe is delicious and has become a regular recipe for us. I'll often add some hard-boiled eggs to it for extra protein to make it last more as a meal.
