| I am a fledgling English vegan and this is one of my most favourite recipes as it's so easy and has delicious, subtle sweet flavour thanks to the mango chutney. It was given to me by a very dear Pakastani friend and she only gave me vague directions re spices so just experiment! |

Directions
1. Fry the onion, garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin and black pepper in the oil until soft
