Mint and Coriander Chutney Shots

Refreshing and antioxidant-rich, these chutney shots combine fresh mint, coriander, green chilies, and lemon juice to create a zesty, palate-awakening starter. Perfect for a light, healthy appetizer.

Steps

1. Rinse the mint and coriander leaves thoroughly. 2. Chop the green chili, removing seeds if less heat is desired. 3. In a blender, combine mint leaves, coriander leaves, green chili, lemon juice, roasted cumin powder, honey (if using), salt, and cold water. 4. Blend until smooth, adding a little more water if necessary to achieve a shot-like consistency. 5. Strain the chutney through a fine sieve for a smooth texture. 6. Pour into small shot glasses and serve chilled as a refreshing starter.
