Notes

  • Don't skip adding chili peppers, it's an integral part of every good green chutney. In India, they always use green elongated chili varieties, and they rarely specify the type in stores. What they usually mean are the Jwala, Bydagi, Dhani, or Kanthari green chili varieties. You can use any green chili variety, I have used African varieties too or Jalapeños.
