Green garlic chutney roast chicken with cumin-spiced vegetables

Served with cumin-spiced vegetables this is the perfect roast dinner to shake up up your Sunday lunch. Scrub the veg well but there is no need to peel them.

If you are feeling adventurous, double the chutney ingredients and try marinating a whole roast chicken for a beautiful centrepiece dish.
