What’s missing in the picture that helps give the chutney that bright color? Ice cubes! Ice cubes help to give chutney a bright green color. This is because it reduces the impact of a heated blender motor on the color of the leaves.

Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups mint leaves packed
  • 1 cup cilantro
  • 1 green chilli
  • inch ginger wash thoroughly, no need to peel
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • cup chilled water
  • 2 tbsp daalia (dry roasted chana) can substitute shelled peanuts or roasted shelled peanuts; this acts as a thickening agent for the chutney

Instructions
 

  • Prepare ingredients
  • Blend all ingredients with ice
  • Add chilled water then more if needed to reach desired consistency

Notes

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.
 
You can also skip the daalia (dry roasted chana) or peanuts as a substitute.  It will make the chutney less thick though.

    1. 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.
