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.

CUCUMBER MINT CHUTNEY
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. I hope you will ck it out for me so I will know if my pers taste & instincts are well-founded. *Enjoy*

Steps:
- Prepare the herbs by picking the leaves off the stem, washing and coarsley chopping.

- 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).
