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.

    Needed pepper and a more modest amount of salt, but otherwise my family really enjoyed this. Loved the addition of the egg yolks for creaminess.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this recipe which I made to use up some zucchini. The saffron complemented the zucchini without overwhelming it and the sauce was creamy without there being any cream in the recipe. Having said that, it was a little too one-note for me to serve as a main but it was successful as a side to some fish.
