Green Chutney

Indian green chutney is a versatile condiment that is an integral part of 'chaat' and snacks. It can be put together in 5 minutes and can be used in so many ways. Use this pudina chutney in chaats, as a dip with your finger foods, or as a spread in sandwiches and wraps. Vegan and gluten-free.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place cilantro, mint leaves, ginger, garlic, green chili, lime juice, and salt in a blender.
  • Add ¼ cup of water and blend into a smooth paste.
  • Chutney is ready to be used or stored.

Notes

I like using the same quantity of mint and cilantro as it balances the chutney without one of the herbs overpowering the chutney. However, you can alter it and use more mint if you like the strong flavor it imparts.
You can add one to two tablespoons of yogurt when blending the chutney to reduce the heat from the chilies. In that case, skip the lemon juice.
