MINT CHUTNEY



Mint Chutney image

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.

Categories     condiments

Time 5m

Yield 3/4 cup

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup loosely packed cilantro with stems
2 cups loosely packed mint leaves
2 teaspoons cumin seeds or 1 teaspoon cumin powder
3 to 5 Thai green chiles, stemmed
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup Greek yogurt or water
2 garlic cloves (optional)

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.

From the *Best Seafood Recipes* cookbook of the Australian Women's Weekly cookbook series comes this recipe that was actually a part of a complete main-dish, but I was intrigued w/this unique idea. It was used w/fish cakes & I think it would be such a refreshing alternative to tartar sauce & other sauses used for them. I also feel it would work very well w/roasted or grilled lamb.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 bunches cilantro (corriander leaves)
1 bunch of fresh mint, small
3 green chilies, small variety

Steps:

  • Prepare the herbs by picking the leaves off the stem, washing and coarsley chopping.
  • Dissolve the tamarind paste in a tablespoon of water.

  • Put all the ingredients into a blender/food processor and grind into a fine puree. Use small amounts of water if needed to make the paste, but use sparingly.
  • I've deliberately listed only a small amount of salt because the correct amount is totally to taste.
  • Taste the puree and season to taste.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet on meadium heat.
  • Add the oil, and when the oil is warm add the herb puree.
  • Stir around until the water evaporates and the mixtures darkens in color.
  • Cool and transfer to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator.
  • This chutney can be served with samosas, pakora, fritters or other savory snacks.
  • It can also be used as a spread on bread for sandwiches (try topping with sliced cucumbers for a yummy sandwich).
  • You can also add a small amount of jaggery or brown sugar dissolved in water while grinding if you wish.
