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.

Notes about this recipe

    Easy and delicious. I've enjoyed plenty of other whole chickens spiced with Indian flavours (Molly Baz, Mob One) but this is probably my favourite. I used the air fryer so cooked the chicken breast side down, and added the rice to cook beneath/alongside the chicken. Usually I like a big spoonful of yogurt alongside a roast chicken plus carbs but the rice was so beautifully buttery it didn't need it. We didn't bother with the lime pickle but the squeeze of lemon at the end is essential. Served with a green salad. The four-year-old loved the chicken and skin but not the rice.
