Chef's Tips
For a smoother chutney, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve after blending.
Adjust the amount of green chili to control the spiciness. Remove the seeds for a milder flavor.
Store leftover chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
This chutney pairs perfectly with samosas, pakoras, tandoori dishes, and grilled meats.
You can add a small piece of amla (Indian gooseberry) for an extra tangy and healthy boost.
