Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 avocado
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup cilantro
  • 2 green chillies
  • 1 tbsp. Lemon juice
  • ½ tsp. Salt
  • ¼ tsp. Pepper
  • ¼ tsp. Ground cumin

Instructions

  • Take a ripe avocado. It should be dark in colour and yield a bit when pressed.
  • Cut it around the pit in half. Then remove the pit.
  • Scoop out the flesh and keep aside.
  • Roughly chop 1 cup cilantro leaves and stems, 2 green chillies and 2 cloves garlic.
  • Take a blender jar. Add cilantro, chillies, avocado, garlic, lemon juice, salt, pepper and cumin powder.
  • Blend everything together till nice and smooth.
  • I leave it thick and creamy. This way it is perfect as a dip or as a spread.
  • But, if you want it a bit runny like a sauce, you can add a bit of water to it.
  • Chill it for an even more delicious flavour.

Notes

1. Choose Ripe Avocado: Perfectly ripe avocado blend well and make a thick and creamy chutney.
Choose one that yields slightly when pressed lightly.
2. Adjust Consistency Carefully: To make it creamier, add coconut cream or cashew yogurt.
For a thin runny consistency, add some water.
3. Adjust heat: Use one chilli if you like your chutney milder.
4. Lemon juice: Lemon juice not only adds tartness but also retains the vibrant colour of the chutney.
