Spice it up!

Nice Get-together planned. You plan to watch the game with your gang. You got the drinks, chips, munchies etc etc. But theres something missing! A dip to go with the chip. Heres a quick Pudina Dip to add an exciting spice. It goes wonderfully with anything. You can even use it on your boring toast, as chutney for lunch or as a ready made gravy paste.

Ingredients:


  • Pudina (Mint Leaves) - half a bunch 
  • Coriander - 1 cup 
  • Green Chillies -6-10 nos (depending on how spicy you want it)
  • Sugar - 1tsp
  • Jeera (Cumin Seed ) Powder -1tsp
  • Garlic  - 10-12 petals peeled
  • Dhania (Coriander Seeds) powder
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt to taste
Procedure
  • Separate the pudina leaves from the stalks. (Tip :If you are fond of gardening, you can plant the stalks. Put them in the soil lengthwise.  Soon you will have homegrown Pudina:) )
  • Wash the Leaves and the coriander 
  • Cut the dates off the green chillies. The number of chillies you use depends on how spicy you want it. 6 chillies-mild, 8- medium and 10 -spicy
  • Put the pudina, coriander, lime juice, garlic, green chillies, sugar, salt, jeera powder, dhania powder in a mixer(the one you use to make paste) and grind it to a fine paste
  • Serve Chilled
