Poodina / Mint Chutney

This chutney goes very well with grilled Indian platters.


Ingredients:
1/2 cup Poodina Leaves (Mint Leaves) (1/2 bunch)
1 cup Hara Dhania (Coriander), chopped along with the stem
2 Green Chillies, chopped
1 Onion, Chopped
1 1/2 tsp Amchoor (Dry Mango Powder)
1 1/2 tsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt

Method:

  • Wash coriander and mint leaves.
  • Grind all ingredients with just enough water to get the right chutney consistency.

This goes to Chutney / Dip Mania at Mane Adige

Recently JZ of Tasty Treats conducted Santa's Holiday Challenge Event and I got 3rd place for my Lemon Meringue Pie. This was my first ever win in the blogsphere. My heartfelt thanks to all those who voted for me.




It is very common for us to get to see a lot of snow photos and now it’s my turn to show you what we have today in Kuwait:)






Yes it is a Sand Storm and it looks like this at 1pm local time!!! My entire flat is covered with dust. My God please help me clean up this mess :(
