Green Chutney|Dhania Pudina Chutney is one of the most important chutneys in Indian cuisine.

As the name suggests it’s made using green coriander and mint leaves along with few more ingredients. It’s gluten free and vegan.

Indian cuisine is incomplete without the mention of coriander mint chutney. It is the most popular accompaniment which is served with snacks and for making various chaats.

Easy to make Chutney/Dip

The chutney/dip i am making since years and probably one of the first things i learnt from my mom when i begin to learn cooking.

It’s one of the the easiest chutneys i have ever made. The recipe is just assemble ingredients and dump in the mixer jar, pulse and you are done.

Of course this chutney when made manually, on silbatta/Mortar pestle/grinding stone and hand grinded tastes altogether different. My Mother in law never uses mixer to make this particular Chutney. She still uses that age old black marble silbatta.

Dhania Pudina Chutney a must for making various chaats/snacks :

You can serve this lipsmacking Chutney with variety of snacks from Pakoda, tikkis or Kebabs, Parantha, Samosa or any food item as per your choice.

The tangy green chutney/dip is ideal to use as sandwich spread. Add this into bhel puri, Sev batata puri, Vada pav or ragda pattice to add the required zing to all these chaat items.

We always love to have Vada pav Fondue with lipsmacking Dry garlic coconut chutney.

These snacks are incomplete without hari chutney as it elevates the taste of any simple snack. Personally I like to add this to my moong dal khichdi along with some tomato ketchup. It tastes yummilicious.

Can i store Chutney?

You can store and refrigerate this Chutney in a glass jar/bottle for many days and enjoy it whenever you want.

I generally prefer to make it in small quantities and store it in glass bottle. And whenever required i try to make it fresh as it doesn’t take too much time to prepare.

Variations to make Green Chutney Recipe | Dhania Pudina Chutney using different ingredients

The recipe to make Green Chutney Recipe | Dhania Pudina Chutney is very versatile. Tweak the green chutney recipe with whatever ingredients you are having in your pantry.

Like in summers i like to use green raw mango along with lemon juice.  Add few slices of tangy raw mango in this chutney. Then decrease the amount of lemon juice in that case.

Or sometimes use only tamarind pulp.

In winters i like to use spring onion whites instead of regular onions and use fresh garlic instead of regular garlic. Basically I try to make the most of the seasons fresh produce.

Tricks and tips to make perfect Green Chutney Recipe | Dhania Pudina Chutney

First and foremost to soak the water content in chutney, i use Dalia/bhuna chana or sometimes namkeen Sev/Bhavnagri ganthia. It balances out the consistency of chutney and prevents it from being runny.

Or many times while serving it with snacks i add hung curd in prepared green chutney.

While grinding the chutney add ice cubes instead of water to retain the beautiful green colour.
