GREEN CHUTNEY

Green Chutney

 

Green chutney, also called as mint-coriander or hari chutney is a very simple condiment which goes well with almost everything… paranthas, puris, salads, pulao, chaats and the list can go on and on.   My daughter can have anything with this chutney and most of the time I make this especially for her, with subtle variation.  Sometimes, I make it using onion at times with garlic or just coriander and coconut with chilli, amchur powder and black salt.

INGREDIENTS
Fresh Mint Leaves 1/2 cup
Fresh Coriander Leaves 1 cup
Green Chillies 2 -3
Black Salt To taste
Lemon Juice 1- 2 tsp
Sugar 1/4 tsp
Onion (Optional) 1 medium
Garlic (Optional) 1 clove
Coconut (Optional) 1 tbsp

 

METHOD

  • Roughly chop mint leaves, coriander leaves, green chilli, onion and garlic. 
  • Process everything (except lemon juice) together in a blender to a smooth paste.  Add water only if required.
  • Transfer to a container and add in the lemon juice and mix well.
  • You can replace lemon juice with amchur powder (dry mango powder) or dried raw mango pieces.
