How to make Green Chutney – Sowcarpet Style :-))

I already have a green chutney that I make for Chaats. While posting the Sowcarpet Murukku Sandwich, I also got a recipe from our friend for the unusual but lip smacking chutney.

So, thought of posting this too (for posterity). My elder one isn’t fond of cheese n chutney sandwiches, but after this was made, she said for the next two days, her snack break is gonna be just that :-))
