Green Coriander Chutney

Most Indian snacks are served with a chutney or dip. This can be spicy, rich, tangy or sweet and sour. A chutney compliments hot and spicy snacks, while it adds flavour to cold snacks like bhel puri and chaats. Chutneys can turn every day rotis and parathas into yummy exotic frankies. These are easy to make and always gather compliments.
