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.

    Can substitute feta cheese for natural yoghurt, and mint or basil for parsley. See recipe for variations.

    Felt it needed something with it to help "mop up", served it with bulgur wheat

    Found this a bit bland, maybe it needs some really good olives (not just standard black pitted ones from a jar). Had it with rice one day, and the next just mopping it up with buttered toast, which was much better.
