You can skip the ice cubes if you don’t have but it helps to get that bright green color. The ice cubes help prevent the heat of the motor changing color of the leaves.

what is Dahlia as an ingredient in this recipe? can I replace it with something else?
Hi there – Daalia is known as whole roasted chana. You can substitute shelled peanuts or roasted shelled peanuts or even desiccated coconut; this acts as a thickening agent for the chutney. You can also skip these completely, the chutney will just not have a thicker consistency.
