Green Elixir

Green chutney might just be the world's greatest condiment.  Mixed with yoghurt and tamarind sauce, it forms the perfect trifecta for any fried food.  On its own, it compliments just about anything, grilled meat, paratha, paneer, you name it.  The champion of sauces, in all it's glory:

Green Chutney

100 grams fresh Coriander leaves (cilantro)
1 tsp chopped ginger
1 tsp chopped garlic
2 green chilis
1 tsp lemon juice
25 grams of fresh mint
1/2 tsp of cumin seeds
1/2 onion
1/2 tomato
Salt to taste

Mix and grind all ingredients in a food processor or grinder.  If liquid is needed, water or plain yoghurt can be added.  Puree and serve.
