Mint Chutney | Pudina Chutnee | Hari Chutni

Mint (Pudina) Chutney is very versatile and an integral part of an Indian Meal. It can be served as a dip with appetizers (example pappad, samosas, kebabs, etc.) or it can be used as a spread in sandwiches – with cucumber or tomatoes and cheese (yummy!) and best of all, it plays a key role in making chaat, a very popular street food.
