Coriander Leaves Chutney Recipe - Restaurant Style Kothamalli chutney

Print Friendly and PDF
green chutney hotel style

I call this coriander leaves chutney as hotel green chutney. I’ve already posted hotel white and red chutney long back. This is also the same as white chutney but I added little coriander leaves. U can combine mint & coriander leaves in equal ratio and try the same. It tastes great with idli. I've given two versions. Please refer the notes section for the second version. Let’s see how to make this hotel style green chutney recipe.

HOW TO MAKE HOTEL STYLE CORIANDER LEAVES CHUTNEY - METHOD

    1. Take all the ingredients given above and grind it to a smooth paste by adding sufficient water. In a kadai, temper all the items given under “to temper”. Add to chutney.
    2. Serve with idli adding sesame oil
Enjoy !
Note
    • To get a good green colored chutney, Just saute the coriander & mint leaves in little oil for sometime, add a pinch of turmeric powder and then grind with other ingredients.
    •  Instead of sauting the leaves, you can just add a pinch of turmeric powder to get nice green color.
    • I make the same chutney in another way too.
METHOD - 2

I add little oil in a kadai and saute the green chillies, mint& coriander leaves, little dalia and finally coconut. Just saute everything one by one , mix well and grind together with salt and water. Do the seasoning. This is also a restaurant style green chutney. Do try this way too :)


    • The same chutney can be done using mint leaves or coriander leaves alone.
    • U can try the second method by just sauteing the leaves alone and grind with the other things raw.
    • At the end, add little lime juice for tanginess.
