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.

    Beans soak overnight.

    Bomb-ass indeed! Even without cilantro (I have that gene), they were exploding with flavour. I had them as dinner, smeared over fresh tortillas. It was heaven! One thing though: I used lovely Rancho Gordo beans, soaked them overnight, and yet it took 6 cups of water (not 4) and 90 minutes on simmer (not an hour) to get them appropriately soft. Other than that, I’m delighted with them and adding to my “repeat” list.
