Walnut cilantro chutney is one of the easiest, minimalistic chutney that you can whip instantly. I love to, pair it with dosa and idli and even use it as a dip with crackers. All it needs is 3 key ingredients and the tadka (hot oil tempering) on top is optional.
1Cup Roughly chopped cilantro leaves, including stems
2tablespoonYogurt
1Garlic clove
½teaspoonsalt
For Tadka
1tablespoonOil
¼teaspoonMustard seed
1Dry Red chili
½teaspoonAsafoetida
Instructions
In a blender, add all the ingredients for the chutney and blend it to a smooth purée. Don't add water until needed. Taste for salt and add more if needed. Pour the chutney in a serving bowl
For the tadka, place the tadka pan at medium heat. Pour the oil and once the oil heats up, add mustard seeds, dry red chili, asafoetida and let it sizzle for a while.
