This recipe loves some homemade chutney and a bottle of Ginger Beer.
This recipe sounds awesome and I am going to have to give it a go! If only for it to transport me to a place where I can imagine hot weather and great surf. It's gloves, hats and one pots back here in the UK. Spare a thought for us all in the cold. I'll let you know how I get on making this. Mike
