Green Chutney

The perfect addition to samosas and kabobs is a vibrant and delicious green chutney that only takes 5 minutes to make! It's my absolute favorite to enjoy at Afghan and Indian restaurants that just adds so much flavor to anything it's drizzled on. If you've never had it before, it's basically a tangy herb sauce with lots of mint, cilantro, and jalapeño!

Ingredients

  • 2 bunches cilantro
  • 1 bunch mint
  • 2 jalapeños deseeded
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 2 teaspoons ginger paste
  • juice of 1 whole lime
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 cup plain yoghurt
  • pinch of sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne powder to taste
  • water to thin out optional

Instructions 

  1. To a food processor, add all the ingredients and pulse until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust salt or spiciness to your taste.
  2. If you’d like it thinner, add more water a tablespoon a time until you reach desired consistency.
  3. Store any leftovers in an air-tight container or jar and keep in the fridge for 5 to 7 days.
