Servings: 4 people
Equipment
- Food chopper or blender
- Small bowl
Ingredients
- 1 ounce cilantro/ green coriander
- 1 ounce fresh mint leaves
- 2 green chilies
- 1 clove garlic
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup natural yogurt
Instructions
- Roughly chop the cilantro, mint leaves, and green chilies. Place them in the food chopper.
- Peel the garlic and add it to the chopper.
- Add salt, lemon juice and yogurt. Blitz the chopper until you get the smoothness of the herbs and chilies you like.
- Check the taste, and feel free to add chili if you prefer it spicier, lemon if you want it more zing, or salt if you like it saltier.
- Transfer the chutney to a small serving bowl and use as needed.
Notes
- Every chili has its own heat level. Feel free to add less or more according to your liking. Although Asian-style natural yogurt is preferable, you can always use any flavorless natural yogurt. The only difference is that the Asian yogurt has a sharper taste. You can achieve this by putting in a bit of extra lemon juice.
