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 was so much more flavourful than I expected - delicious 5 spice flavours (using fresh not preground made all the difference). I added noodles and some chicken to bulk it out and fresh chilli but it wouild have been lovely without as well. a fair bit of prep but then comes together quite quickly. Will be on repeat
