Green chutney is common to most Indian households. It is prepared with green coriander leaves, green chilli, garlic, ginger and lemon juice is simply irresistible. It is used with snacks, sandwiches and in preparation of various types of chaats. To make Green Chutney, rinse the coriander leaves well in water and roughly chop them. Now take the chopped coriander leaves, chopped green chillies, ginger, garlic, sugar, lemon juice, potato, salt and grind to a smooth paste in a grinder jar or a small blender jar. Add 1 or 2 tsp water and grind to a smooth chutney. You can also add a few teaspoons more of the water if required. But don't make the chutney too thin or watery. The addition of lemon juice enhances the flavours of coriander and prevents discolouration of the greens and the pieces of potato enhances the texture of green chutney. Now transfer the chutney in a bowl and keep aside. Use this green chutney as required or with samosas / other chaat recipes.
