If you like to take your taste buds to the next level, then blend up this fresh tasting, Indian street food inspired coriander chutney. It is a green dip that fried Indian snacks can’t do without, but it will also add a big flavour-punch to home cooking in so many inspiring ways. No matter how you use it you are sure to love the flavours.
Coriander chutney is made in numerous ways across India, with every home, restaurant or street vender having their own unique version. We’ve added raisins and just love the result. It’s a simple, no-cook, blender sauce that (once the raisins have soaked) is ready to serve in minutes. Just put all the ingredients in the Vibe blender and whiz away.
Coriander chutney is delicious with just about anything but here’s our suggestions:
Dipping sauce for appetisers: Think samosas, kebabs, fritters and chips, you'll love the zesty contrast this chutney brings to finger food.Treat this recipe like a starting point and customise it to your taste. Experiment and sample some of our suggested add-ins for different iterations. It’s a great one to make ahead of time and then use as needed.
Chilli factor: Coriander chutney can be as fiery as your taste buds can tolerate, or nice and mild if that's how you like it. Use any kind of chillies available to you. Fresh or dried, red or green.
Love sweet & savoury: Add up to another cup of raisins for a sweeter version.
More zing: Fresh ginger adds a nice peppery zing to coriander chutney but don’t add too much though because it can become a little bitter. About a tablespoon is ideal.
More zest: Freshly squeezed lime juice really enhances the flavours. Taste test once it’s blended to get the right balance.
Curry switch: We double up on coriander in our version, but roasted cumin seeds or a combination of the two seeds works very well. Roast them in a skillet until fragrant and then powder them in the Vibe blender. No spice grinder or mortar and pestle is required.
Mint match: Add a bit of extra freshness by including a handful of fresh mint.
Gut loving: mix in homemade yogurt or dripped yogurt cheese. Add a little or a lot, it’s up to you. You’ll love the extra body and creaminess.
2 large bunches of fresh coriander
1 cup raisins
3 cloves of garlic, crushed
3 tablespoons coriander seeds
1 teaspoon of dried chilli flakes or 1-2 fresh green chilli
1 teaspoon black pepper corns
1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice (add more to taste)
¼ teaspoon of salt or to taste.
1. Soak the raisins in boiled water for approx. 30 minutes to soften, then rinse and drain.
2. Trim about 1 inch off the ends only (the root) but include the tender stems, as they are loaded with flavour.
3. Rinse the coriander thoroughly and shake or pat to dry.
4. Dry roast the coriander seeds in a pan until aromatic.
5. Add the coriander seeds and pepper corns to the Vibe Blender jug then blend on ‘nut’ mode for approx. 20 seconds.
6. Add the fresh coriander, raisins, chilli, garlic, lime and salt.
7. Secure the lid on and insert the tamper. Choose ‘smoothie’ mode then process, rotating the tamp for 30 seconds.
8. Stop and scrape down the sides. Blend again if necessary.
9. Taste test and adjust the seasoning.
10. For a saucier finish, add a dash of water and blend.
11. Spoon the chutney into a serving dish or sealable glass jar and store in the fridge for up to a week.
