Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh cilantro, tightly packed
- 1 cup fresh mint leaves, loosely packed
- 2 pieces fresh green chilies, chopped
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 inch fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
- 2 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Begin by washing the cilantro and mint leaves thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
In a high-powered blender or food processor, add the fresh cilantro, mint leaves, chopped green chilies, lemon juice, chopped ginger, garlic cloves, sea salt, and cumin seeds.
Start blending the ingredients at a low speed to combine them. Stop as needed to scrape down the sides of the blender or food processor with a spatula.
Slowly drizzle the extra virgin olive oil into the blender while it is running to help emulsify the chutney and create a smooth paste. Blend until the chutney reaches your desired consistency, ensuring all the ingredients are well blended.
Taste the chutney and adjust the seasoning if desired. You may add more salt or lemon juice according to your taste preference.
Transfer the prepared Paleo Green Chutney into a clean, airtight container and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.
Serve as a complement to your favorite paleo meals, like grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or as a refreshing dip for fresh veggie sticks.
