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.

    Very good! Made as stated, but didn’t add the walnuts. Cooked in my 12” covered fry pan. I used red lentils, which pretty much disintegrated, so next time I’d probably use brown or green lentils that should (hopefully) retain their structure. The flavor was wonderful.
