  2. Take the chopped coriander leaves, chopped green chillies & ginger, cumin powder, chaat masala, lemon juice and salt in a grinder jar or a small blender jar.
  3. Add 1 or 2 teaspoon water or as needed and grind or blend to a fine consistency. Add a few teaspoons more of the water if required. But don't make the chutney too thin or watery.
  4. Remove the chutney in a bowl and set aside.
  5. Use this green chutney as required for chaat recipes or serve as a dipping condiment sauce with Indian snacks.
  6. This chutney keeps well for about 2 to 3 days when refrigerated.

Notes

  • Make sure to use fresh and green coriander leaves. The leaves must not be wilted or dried. If the stems are tender, you can add them.
  • Thoroughly rinse the coriander leaves well with water. You can place them in a colander or strainer and rinse under running water.
  • You could add some fresh mint leaves together with the coriander leaves.
  • Do not adding too much water while grinding chutney ingredients. If the chutney gets a thin watery consistency, the flavors get diluted. Start by adding just 1 to 2 teaspoons water, while grinding or blending and if needed, add more.
  • To thicken, the chutney, you can add about ¼ cup of grated fresh coconut or 2 tablespoons roasted chana dal. But remember that with coconut or roasted chana dal, the flavor and taste will change considerably.
  • You can increase or decrease the quantity of green chilies according to the level of spiciness you want in this chutney.
  • Recipe can be scaled to make a big batch of the green chutney.
