Cilantro Chutney
I love a spicy cilantro chutney and it is a staple in my fridge. It goes with so many Indian dishes and you can make a batch and freeze it. Make my chutney sandwiches (recipe on blog), or use in bhel puri, or as a dipping sauce for samosas. So many ways to use cilantro chutney!

Notes
You can freeze extra chutney in ice cubes and use when needed. Using ice cubes when blending will help keep the color green. You can also add a few mint leaves to give it more flavor. Adjust salt and green chilies as per your taste.
