Wash the fresh coriander leaves and mint leaves thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Roughly chop the coriander leaves, mint leaves, garlic, and ginger to make blending easier.
In a blender or food processor, add the coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chilies, garlic, ginger, cumin seeds, salt, sugar, and lemon juice.
Pour 2 tablespoons of water into the blender to help the ingredients blend to a smooth consistency.
Blend the mixture until it forms a smooth, slightly thick paste. You may add a little more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the chutney is too thick for your liking.
Taste the chutney and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt, sugar, or lemon juice as needed.
Transfer the chutney to a serving bowl or an airtight container if storing. It can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Serve as a dipping sauce or as a condiment with samosas, pakoras, grilled meats, or Indian flatbreads.
