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

    Very pleasant rice dish. It's relatively gently flavored, so it's a good accompaniment for more strongly flavored dishes. The ketchup adds a nice flavor layer that doesn't shout "ketchup!!" Definitely add salt to taste - it's not salty at all as written. A lot of commenters on Chowhound noted the modest quantity of fish sauce called for in the recipe and said that they'd added a lot more - that would definitely intensify the flavors and saltiness!
