Equipment
- Mixie Jar or Blender
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cilantro coriander leaves, roughly chopped
- 12 to 15 Almonds
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon Black peppercorns pepper powder optional
- 2 Green chilies
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Nicely wash the coriander leaves (I have used tender stalks and leaves). Add it to the mixie jar or blender along with almonds, lemon juice, black peppercorns, green chilies, and salt, and blend it to a smooth paste.2 cups Cilantro, 12 to 15 Almonds, 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, ¼ teaspoon Black peppercorns, 2 Green chilies, Salt
- Add water while blending, but be careful not to add too much, as this chutney needs very little water. Approx 4 tablespoon of water.
- Transfer this to a bowl or air-tight conatiner. Store in fridge and use as and when needed.
- This chutney can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Optionally, to make it fresh, you can add tablespoon of yogurt and stir.
Notes
- You can substitute green chilies with jalapeno or serrano peppers. Taste may vary accordingly.
- Vary the amount of green chilies and peppercorns as per your taste.
- I have used raw almonds in the recipe. You can even add soaked and peeled almonds if desired. This will make the chutney more creamier.
- No coconut or yogurt is needed to make this chutney.
- I generally love to add cashews while making chutney. So, if you love cashews, you can substitute almonds with them.
- To avoid the bitter taste of chutney, chop and add cilantro to the blender. Blending for too long can make it bitter.
