Chutney, a condiment that originated in India, is a versatile and flavorful sauce that can be used as a dip, marinade, or topping. It is made from a variety of fruits, vegetables, and spices, and can be sweet, savory, or spicy. Mint, a herb with a refreshing and slightly peppery taste, is a common ingredient in chutney, and its addition brings a bright and herbaceous flavor to the sauce. Whether you are looking for a tangy condiment to serve with your favorite appetizer or a flavorful marinade for your next grilled chicken dish, a chutney with mint is sure to tantalize your taste buds and add a vibrant touch to your meal.

MINT CHUTNEY
In Desi cooking, mint chutney enlivens eggs, kormas, biriyanis, sandwiches and many other dishes, adding a sour, spicy and fresh cooling sweetness. Where it really sings, though, is as an accompaniment to samosas and chaats. Use Greek yogurt if you want a creamy chutney. Depending on preference, you can skip the raw garlic.

Steps:
- Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed, scraping the bowl occasionally, until smooth and thick enough to hold at the lip of a spoon without any liquid running. The chunky bits should not separate from the liquid. The consistency of the chutney will probably depend on the strength of the blender, and a chunky chutney made with a lower powered blender tastes just as good as a very smooth one. The chutney can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 day.

CILANTRO-MINT CHUTNEY
This vibrant green chutney from Maneet Chauhan's "Chaat" (Clarkson Potter, 2020) is as easy to make as it is versatile. The combination of mint, cilantro, green chiles and lime juice makes for a fresh and bright sauce, but the mango pulp is especially key, giving the chutney a slightly creamy texture and a subtly sweet flavor. This chutney has a lot of uses in Indian cuisine - a building block for chaat, or a dipping sauce for pakora, for example - and it can also be used as a sandwich spread or marinade. It lasts up to two weeks, refrigerated, in an airtight container, but it will start to lose its vibrancy and flavor after a week - best to make it one batch at a time to enjoy that day. -Priya Krishna
