Cooking Method
Preparing Spiced Green Chutney
In a blender or food processor, combine coriander leaves, mint leaves, green chillies, onion, garlic, and ginger. Blend until you get a smooth paste.
Heat a small pan over medium heat and add cumin seeds. Let them sizzle for a few seconds until fragrant.
Add the blended green paste to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the chutney thickens slightly and the raw smell of the herbs is gone.
Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and salt. Let the chutney cool to room temperature.
Roasting Methi Papad
Preheat a non-stick pan or tava over medium heat.
Place a methi papad on the pan and roast for about 30 seconds on each side, until it crisps up and lightly browns. Repeat with the remaining papads.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I don't have fresh coriander, mint, and green chillies? Can I use dried or frozen alternatives?
While fresh herbs are ideal, you can use dried or frozen alternatives as a substitute. However, keep in mind that they may alter the flavor and texture of the chutney. Dried herbs will require about 1/3 of the amount called for in the recipe, while frozen herbs should be thawed and used in the same quantity.
How do I store leftover methi papad and spiced green chutney?
Store leftover methi papad in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For the spiced green chutney, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can also freeze it for up to 2 months. When reheating, make sure to stir well and adjust seasoning as needed.
Can I make the spiced green chutney ahead of time and store it in the fridge?
Yes, you can prepare the spiced green chutney a day in advance and store it in the refrigerator. However, it's best to assemble and serve it fresh for optimal flavor and texture. If you do choose to make it ahead, give it a good stir before serving and adjust seasoning as needed.
