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.

    We were all pretty neutral on this. We probably won't make it again.

    This is really simple but satisfying. We ate it with rice and the adults added chili crisp, which was really good.
