Instructions

Place the herbs, green chili, a clove of garlic, cumin seeds, salt and lemon juice into a blender. Add a tablespoon of water.

2

Grind into a smooth paste, until the base of the pudina chutney has a smooth texture. There should be no bite to the herbs.

3

In a bowl, place the yogurt and whisk it well to get rid of any lumps. Once it is smooth, add the prepared mint sauce.

4

Mix well until homogenized.

HELPFUL TIPS:

Use a good blender or grinder to make a smooth mint paste. I use a nutribullet for all of my recipes that require such as this green chutney.

Don't be tempted to add the yogurt to the blender. I've made this mistake in the past, but it doesn't all the herbs to blend completely and also thins out the consistency of the yogurt greatly.
