Coriander Chutney

This is a very common chutney and is popularly known as green chutney. It can go with absolutely anything- from samosas and vadas to chaat and grilled chicken. It can be made easily in no time. We usually make it at home with Dosas.

Ingredients

1/2 teaspoonCumin seed
1/2 teaspoonMustard seed
1 bunchCoriander, large stems removed
1/4 smallOnion roughly chopped 1/4 cups Unsweetened grated coconut
1/2"Piece of ginger roughly chopped
2 green chillies
2Lemons juiced
Salt

Method

Put the cumin seed and mustard seed in a small heavy bottomed pan and roast over heat until the spices are fragrant, but be careful not to burn them. The key is to keep the spices constantly moving in the pan by shaking it with a swirling motion. Put the spices in a spice grinder and pulverize. Add everything including the toasted spices into a blender and blitz until smooth. Add some water if the chutney is too thick then adjust salt to taste. Stored in an airtight container in the fridge your green chutney should last at least 1 week.
