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.

    This worked well. It's a classic combination of pasta, mushrooms, cream, but it's all cooked together in one pan. It's not quicker than cooking separately, but at least it cuts down on washing up. It's best to use pasta that cooks relatively quickly -- I used tagliatelle. I added a good grind of coarse black pepper, not mentioned in the recipe, but it's a no-brainer with mushrooms. I don't like parsley so I substituted oregano. If I'd thought of it I'd have soaked some dried mushrooms and added them finely chopped. Always an improvement when you only have button mushrooms. With the black pepper and a generous squeeze of lemon it was very good though.
