I already have a small bunch of mint growing in a little pot on my patio and I never have to go out to buy mint. Looks like my little champion mint plant has survived the winter and is all set for spring and summer.
Mom always said that the more you take the leaves from a mint plant the more it grows. How true!!
Heres how to make the mint chutney:
Ingredients:
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup fresh coriander leaves
1/2 Onion, chopped
2 small fresh green chilli, coarsely chopped
1 large garlic clove, chopped
1 tsp fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
Salt to taste
Heat very little oil in a pan and add cumin seeds, mint, coriander, onion, chilli, garlic and saute for a minute. Then put this in a mixer with little water and grind it to make a paste. Add lime juice and salt to taste.
Tip: If you do not want the chutney to be hot, remove the green chilli or add just one.
