Flask rest API - Ingredients Field . Task 2/2

Question

What am I missing?

resources/ingredients.py

from flask import Blueprint

@Michael Kristiansen

"""
1. wrong syntax for ingredient variable for get method in IngredientList class 
2. Missed the "[" before marshal keyword
"""
ingredient = [marshal(ingreidient, ingredient_fields) for ingredient in models.Ingredient.select()]

"""
You missed the "s" character for "ingredient_fields" variable 
on your decorator before get method in Ingredient class
"""
@marshal_with(ingredient_field)
    def get(self, id):
        ingredient = models.Ingredient.get(models.Ingredient.id==id)
        return ingredient
