Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup, packed Fresh coriander leaves
- 0.5 cup, packed Fresh mint leaves
- 1 medium Green chili
- 1 small Garlic clove
- 0.5 inch piece Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Roasted cumin powder
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt substitute (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Honey (if needed)
Instructions
Thoroughly wash the coriander and mint leaves under running water to remove any dirt or impurities. Shake off excess water or pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Roughly chop the coriander and mint leaves and transfer them into a blender or a food processor.
Add the green chili, garlic clove, and ginger to the blender. You can adjust the amount of green chili depending on your heat preference.
Pour in the lemon juice and add the roasted cumin powder for extra flavor.
Add the water to help blend the ingredients smoothly. If you'd like to keep the sodium content low, you can avoid adding any salt substitute entirely.
Blend the mixture until you achieve a smooth consistency. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure all ingredients are well-incorporated.
Taste the chutney and adjust seasonings. If you find it too tangy, you can add a teaspoon of honey to balance the flavors, but this is entirely optional.
Transfer the coriander mint chutney to a clean serving bowl or jar.
Serve immediately as a dip with snacks or as a condiment with meals. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
