This is my mother's recipe.She used to make this chutney whenever there is mint at home.I use to have this as a side dish for rasam and curd rice.Just this chutney with curd rice is one of the best lunch to me.

Method:

• Wash mint leaves and keep aside.
• In a pan add oil,then add urad dhal followed by red chilli and tamrind.

• Cook till Mint leaves reduces in size.
• Allow it to cool and grind it with salt and water.

Notes:

• This chutney should not be runny.It must be thick enough so that you can mix it with rice.
