For CUCUMBER CHUTNEY.—Cut the cucumber into thin-julienne-like strips an inch long—say three heaped-up tablespoonsfuls—mix with them a teaspoonful of finely minced chives, or green stem of onion, one of chopped green chilli, or capsicum, and one of parsley; moisten with a dessertspoonful of vinegar in which a pinch of sugar has been dissolved, a dessertspoonful of salad oil, and dust over it salt and black pepper at discretion.
