Wash the cilantro and mint leaves thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or grit.
Pat the herbs dry using a paper towel or clean kitchen cloth.
In a blender or food processor, combine the cilantro, mint leaves, green chili (if using), garlic clove, lemon juice, yogurt, sugar, and salt.
Blend the ingredients together until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water to achieve the desired consistency.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more salt, sugar, or lemon juice to suit your preference.
Once blended to a creamy and smooth paste, transfer the chutney to a small bowl or airtight container.
Refrigerate the chutney for at least 15 minutes before using to enhance the flavors.
Spread generously on bread slices for sandwiches or use as a dip for snacks.
