Cilantro-Mint Chutney Recipe

My Cilantro-Mint Chutney recipe, and an update on The Glass House...

As you may have heard, my friend Stephanie left The Glass House yesterday. What a crazy day... and the end of two LONG months of work for a few of us. The running jokes all centered around feelings of "being released from jail", and having NO idea what we'll do with this new-found "spare time".

To me, it was an excuse to cook a big elaborate meal. Partially just because I COULD, partially to thank my husband for putting up with me the last two months. His intelligent nerdy wife had devolved into someone incapable of having a conversation about anything other than reality TV - he's a saint for being so patient with me! See that photo up top? That was supper last night - three different kinds of Pakora. OMG, was it ever good.

I'll be posting the recipes for each - eventually - but I wanted to get the recipe for the cilantro-mint chutney up, while I have a few minutes to blog.

Cilantro Mint Chutney is a popular condiment in Indian cooking, and pairs so perfectly with a plateful of Pakora. This was *AMAZING* - easily the best we've ever had. I tweaked what I could taste in such chutneys that we've had before, adjusting for personal tastes. I'm kind of embarrassed to admit that we went through an entire batch of it last night, between the two of us!

Enjoy this Cilantro-Mint Chutney Recipe!

Interested in Gluten-free cooking and baking? You'll LOVE Beyond Flour: A Fresh Approach to Gluten-Free Cooking and Baking! How many times have you come across a gluten-free recipe claiming to be “just as good as the normal version!”, only to wind up with weird textures, aftertastes, etc? Most gluten-free recipes are developed by taking a “normal” recipe, and swapping in a simulated “all purpose” gluten-free flour… whether store bought, or a homemade version. “Beyond Flour” takes a different approach: developing the recipe from scratch. Rather than swapping out the flour for an “all purpose” mix, I use various alternative flours as individual ingredients – skillfully blending flavours, textures, and other properties unique to each flour. Supporting ingredients and different techniques are also utilized to achieve the perfect end goal … not just a “reasonable facsimile”. Order your copy here.

Looking for even MORE fantastic gluten-free recipes? Beyond Flour now has a sequel: Beyond Flour 2: A Fresh Approach to Gluten-Free Cooking and Baking! Imagine gluten-free foods that are as good – or better! – than their traditional, gluten-filled counterparts. Imagine no longer settling for foods with bizarre after-tastes, gummy consistency, and/or cardboard texture. Imagine graham crackers that taste just like the real thing. Crisp, flaky crackers…without the sandy texture. Hybrid tortillas that: look and act like flour tortillas, with the taste of fresh roasted corn! Imagine chewy, delicious cookies that *everyone* will want to eat! Imagine BAGELS. If you’ve cooked from “Beyond Flour”, you already know that these fantasies can be reality – it’s all in the development of the recipes. Order your copy here.
