Ingredients
- 1 cup, tightly packed Fresh coriander (cilantro) leaves
- 0.5 cup, tightly packed Fresh mint leaves
- 2 medium Green chilies
- 2 small Garlic cloves
- 1 inch, peeled Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Roasted cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Chaat masala
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
- 2 tablespoons (adjust as needed) Water
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the fresh coriander (cilantro) and mint leaves thoroughly under cold running water to remove dirt and grit.
Step 2
Gently pat the leaves dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. You can also use a salad spinner to remove excess water.
Step 3
Chop the coriander, mint leaves, ginger, and green chilies into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Step 4
In a blender or food processor, add the chopped coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chilies, garlic cloves, ginger, lemon juice, roasted cumin powder, chaat masala, and salt.
Step 5
Pour in 2 tablespoons of water to help with blending. Adjust the amount of water as needed to achieve your desired consistency.
Step 6
Blend the mixture until smooth. Pause occasionally to scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure all ingredients are evenly mixed.
Step 7
Taste the chutney and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, lemon juice, or chilies to your preference.
Step 8
Once smooth and well-combined, transfer the chutney to a clean, airtight container.
Step 9
Serve immediately as a dip for samosas, pakoras, or chips, or as a spread for sandwiches and wraps. The chutney pairs excellently with grilled meats or Indian curries.
Step 10
Store leftover chutney in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving.
