Tools
Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro
- 2 bunches fresh mint - stems removed (approximately 2 cups packed)
- 1-2 green chile peppers - seeded and chopped (such as serrano peppers)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 white onion - peeled and roughly chopped
- ½ lemon - juiced
- 2 tablespoon water - plus more as needed
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin - (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare mint and cilantro. Chop off the thick, tough ends from the cilantro and rinse the leaves under cold water and dry thoroughly. Even better if you have a salad spinner. For the mint, remove the leaves from each stem and set aside (yes, this is the most time-consuming part). Rinse leaves under cold water and pat with paper towels to dry.
- Process. Add all ingredients to the bowl of a high-speed blender and blend until fully pureed. Season with additional salt, lemon juice, or onion, to taste.
Notes
- I originally blended this in my food processor and my mother-in-law (who was born and raised in India) told me that I'll get a smoother blended chutney if I blended it in a high-speed blender. She was 100% correct. Keep in mind that either option will work, they will simply yield different results.
- I love using my salad spinner whenever I need to wash fresh herbs - especially in bulk.
