Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh chopped cilantro
  • 1 cup fresh chopped mint leaves
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1-inch piece of ginger root
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoon tahini
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • teaspoon cayenne flakes

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients to a food processor or a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Serve immediately with your favorite Indian dish or as a snack with some naan bread, papadum, crudités, etc. I served it with some pakoras.
  • Keep leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.

Notes

  • I didn't peel the ginger root, but it's up to you.
  • Tahini can be replaced by oil, but I would add only 2 tablespoon of water.
  • Classic recipe is made with green chilli, but as I couldn't find it, I used cayenne flakes. If you don't like spicy food, omit the cayenne flakes or add less.
