Cooking steps for Walnut Chutney
- 1Here's the tea: if you've never tried walnut chutney, you're seriously missing out. It's the sassy, nutty sidekick your suji cutlet has been waiting for!
- 2Start with 100 grams of walnuts—give them a nice 30-minute spa treatment in water, then drain and set those beauties aside.
- 3Meanwhile, in a pan, dry roast 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds and 1 teaspoon of coriander seeds until they're toasty and aromatic (basically, when your kitchen starts smelling like heaven).
- 4Let those cool, and then the real magic begins.
- 5Toss the soaked walnuts, roasted cumin and coriander seeds, 1 chopped green chili (go bold or go home), a small piece of ginger, 2 cloves of garlic (because garlic is life), a handful of fresh coriander leaves, a handful of mint leaves, and some salt into a blender.
- 6Blitz it all into a smooth, luscious paste—add a splash of water if it's too thick, but don't overdo it; we're going for dreamy, not runny.
- 7Scoop that walnut chutney into a bowl and brighten things up with a tablespoon of lemon juice—zest optional, but extra vibes if you're feeling fancy.
- 8Now, let's amp it up with some drama: heat a tablespoon of oil in a small pan, throw in 1/2 teaspoon of mustard seeds, and let them pop like confetti.
- 9Add a pinch of asafoetida and a few curry leaves for that classic Indian twist.
- 10Pour this sizzling tempering over your chutney, stir it in, and bam—your walnut chutney is ready to be the MVP of your snack game.
- 11This walnut chutney recipe is not just a dip; it's a vibe, perfectly complementing your crispy, golden suji cutlet or whatever you're munching on today.
