Any left over mint leaves in your refrigerator? Then this pudina chutney recipe is the right choice to finish it off. It goes very well with all South Indian tiffin items idli, dosa, rava idli etc. You can replace tamarind with lemon juice, skip coconut and make it as a dip to paneer tikka, samosa and pakora’s also. As I am busy and tied up with my kids worksheets, straightaway over to the Mint Chutney Recipe….

    Why is it necessary to fry everything to make chutney? Can’t we directly blend the ingredients?
