Mint Coriander Chutney
The spicy green chutney made from mint and coriander. A perfect accompaniment for anything, ranging from starters to mains.
Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 100 Grams Fresh Coriander Leaves
- 50 Grams Fresh Mint Leaves
- 7 Green chillies Adjust as per spice level of chillies
- 1 Lemon Big size
- 1/2 Tsp Roasted cumin powder
- 1/2 Tsp Black Salt
- 1 Tsp Salt Adjust as per taste
Instructions
- First of all remove (just) the hard stalks of coriander from the bottom, pluck the leaves of mint from the stem and cap from chillies. Now wash coriander, mint and green chillies thoroughly.
- Add them to a blender jar and grind them to a fine paste with the help of little water. You need to add only little water, so that grinding is easy.
- Now add roasted cumin powder, black salt and normal salt. Add juice from the lemon and give one more grind for few seconds just to mix everything evenly.
- Transfer the chutney to an airtight jar and keep it in Fridge. You can keep this easily for one week.
Notes
-
- You can adjust the amount of mint and coriander according to your taste. I always keep a 2:1 ratio with coriander and mint.
-
- Similarly you can increase / decrease amount of chillies and lemon juice depending upon how hot and tangy chutney you want.
- Adding roasted cumin powder is optional but believe me it enhances the taste and flavour of chutney.
-
- If you can get raw mangoes, just peel and cut raw mango and grind with mint and coriander leaves. Raw mango will definitely be a taste enhancer. Reduce lemon juice if adding raw mango.
- If you want your chutney to look thick (and not watery), you can add 1 tablespoon of Bhujia or bread crumbs to it at the time of grinding, as it will absorbs all extra water.
