"Text excerpted from CHAI, CHAAT & CHUTNEY © 2017 by Chetna Makan ||| Photography: Nassima Rothacker ||| Sour, spicy and slightly sweet, this easy chutney ticks all the boxes. ?It’s brilliant with snacks and finger food but also great with parathas, rice, or as part of a thali. I like to make up a batch regularly and store ?it in the refrigerator for a few days, so that we always have some ?ready whenever we need to snack."
