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.

    Am learning that Madras Curry is supposed to have more spicy heat than a regular “curry” powder, and this version definitely packs in the heat! Recipe calls for 8-10 dried arbol chiles, but I only used six, and even removed the seeds! Still found this to be too hot for our wimpy palates. Am going to make another batch without any chiles and blend to soften.
