Preparing the Mint Leaves:
Begin by washing the fresh mint leaves thoroughly to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel to ensure they’re free from excess water. (Time taken: 2 minutes)
Blending the Ingredients:
In a blender or food processor, add the mint leaves, cilantro, green chilies, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Add a pinch of salt and a touch of sugar to balance the flavors. Blend everything into a smooth, thick paste. (Time taken: 3 minutes)
Adjusting the Consistency:
If the chutney is too thick, add a small amount of water to achieve the desired consistency. Blend again until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. (Time taken: 1 minute)
Serving:
Transfer the chutney into a serving bowl. Garnish with a few extra mint leaves or a sprinkle of cumin powder for an extra burst of flavor. Serve immediately alongside your meal or store it in the refrigerator for later use. (Time taken: 1 minute)
Additional Tip:
For extra depth of flavor, you can also add a small piece of ginger or garlic while blending. This will give the chutney
