Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Rishma's pilau

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.

Notes about this recipe

    Can substitute lime for lemon, jalapeños or ground black pepper for bird's-eye chiles, and crunchy vegetables for cucumbers.

    I was skeptical at first, but this surprised me with how good it was. Also very very easy to whip together. I made this last minute and was a bit on the edge. However it was a big hit at the party I went to!
