Made in India’s coriander chutney chicken and Jaipur slaw

Last of the summer salads: new potato, bacon and parsley
There are ten days of August left and, though it’s not my favourite month, it is still summer. So I am going to spend these almost-two-weeks squeezing in as many warm weather flavours as I can find. First, a hot new … Continue reading
