Lighter than Mint Chutney with Yogurt (following recipe), and, with it’s fresh ginger and garam masala, spicier, I’d serve it with grilled chicken or lamb.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
  • 1 jalapeño or other small fresh chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced, or hot red pepper flakes to taste

Method

  1. Combine the first 5 ingredients in a food processor and process, pulsing the machine on and off and stopping to scrape down the sides if necessary, until the onion and tomato are roughly chopped, not pureed.
  2. Add the mint leaves and pulse a few more times to combine and roughly chop the leaves. Add salt and more chile or spice mix if you like. Serve immediately
