Quick cilantro chutney is pure flavor, no embellishments. Just grind cilantro, ginger, chile peppers, and lime juice together into a fine paste. Slightly runny, this chutney is perfect as a topping sauce over grain or potato bowls, your morning eggs, savory oatmeal, and beans of any kind.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon peeled, grated ginger

Directions
- Step 1
Untie the bunch of cilantro. Wash thoroughly. Pick the leaves and the top, delicate part of the stem. (Save the lower stems to use for soups and broths later.)
- Step 2
Combine the cilantro leaves and top stems, peppers, salt, lime juice, and ginger and blend until you have a fine and smooth paste. Feel free to add a teaspoon or two of water to facilitate blending.
- Step 3
Store in a clean glass bottle in the refrigerator. This will last for 2 to 3 weeks.
