Instructions
- Rinse 30 grams fresh coriander leaves with stems and 60 grams fresh mint leaves with stems and pat dry.
- Place in a blender and add ½ inch ginger, 2 cloves garlic, 1 teaspoon cumin seeds, 3 small green chillies, 8 peppercorns, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1½ tablespoon lemon juice and ½ teaspoon salt. Blend till smooth and serve at room temperature.
Notes
- Select fresh herbs taking care the leaves are not wilting or beginning to yellow.
- We like to include the stems of the fresh herbs as they also have great flavour.
- Oil is added for emulsification, giving a creamy chutney and helps preserve the freshness.
- Adjust the amount of green chilli, lemon and salt to your taste.
- Use in wraps, sandwiches, with Indian snacks, chaat, and roasted meats.
- The chutney will be bright green initially but will darken over time as it is exposed to air. To stop the chutney from turning black, pour a thin layer of oil over the top to prevent its exposure to air.
- Serving tip: Allow the chutney to sit at room temperature for approximately 20 minutes before serving to allow all the flavours to come together. Best served at room temperature.
- Store the chutney in a sealed container the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for up to a month. Note: fresh chutney is more flavoursome than frozen and is served the same day.
