There are some ingredients missing from the list. The description talks about mushrooms and aromatic herbs but the ingredients list no mushrooms or seasonings. I made the dish improvising by adding mushrooms, garlic, green onion, kosher salt, etc. It was tasty. But, I'd like to try the full recipe as intended.
