How to Make Spicy Mint Chutney

- In a mixie jar, take the coriander leaves, mint leaves, onion, green chilies, garlic, water and salt. The chutney is not very thick. So add sufficient water like 3-4 tbsp. The groundnuts lend a nice smoothness to the chutney and won’t let it become watery.
- Blend it well till you get a smooth paste. Add lemon juice to taste in the end when you are done with the blending part. Mix well with a spoon.
- Take the chutney out in a bowl. Serve with tandoori dishes like tandoori chicken, paneer tikkas, tikkis etc. Enjoy!
