Feel really frustrated when the accompanying photo clearly has noodles, 'spring' onions (which are not specified - it just says onions) and red chilli in it, and yet unless I am completely blind they are not mentioned in the ingredients list. Please update this type of error or allow for some quality assurance of recipes as those not confident in cooking could easily be put off.

Delicious - though I added a little less water for personal preference. Very unusual dish.
