Notes

  • Green chutney can be used as a dip for snacks, a spread for sandwiches, a marinade or sauce for grilled meats, a salad dressing, or a flavorful addition to various dishes.
  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and store the chutney in the refrigerator in an airtight container for 3-4 days. Alternatively, freeze the chutney in ice cube trays for longer storage.
  • If the chutney is too runny, you can thicken it by adding grated coconut, roasted peanuts, or soaked and drained chana dal (split Bengal gram) to the blender.
  • Green chutney is suitable for vegans as the basic recipe does not contain any animal products.
  • Remember to taste and adjust the chutney's seasoning and consistency according to your preferences.
