  • 1/2 cup of Mint Leaves
  • 1/4 cup of Coriander Leaves
  • 2 tablespoons of Lemon Juice

Instructions

There aren’t many ingredients in the recipe, which is why there aren’t many steps either. It’s very straightforward, as you only have to do the following easy things:

  1. Add Ingredients To Blender: Add ½ cup of mint leaves and ¼ cup of coriander leaves to the blender. Also put 2 tablespoons of lemon juice on top, and 3 chopped green chilies afterwards. Make sure to sprinkle some salt on top after adding these ingredients too, so that the sauce has a nice, sharp taste to it.

  2. Blend Ingredients: If it wasn’t obvious, you need to blend the ingredients after they’re all inside. Turn the blender on and mix everything well. You will want to keep doing that until the mixture becomes a smooth liquid. It should take a minute or two at most to complete this step and turn the mixture into liquid.

  3. Remove Pulp From Yogurt: Before you can do anything else, you need to pour 1 cup of fresh yogurt into a bowl and remove the pulp inside it. If you add the mixture into the yogurt before removing the pulps, the sauce’s texture won’t be nice at all. So, grab a whisk and start removing the pulps from the yogurt.

  4. Add Mint Mixture And Stir: After removing the pulps, you can put the mint mixture inside of the yogurt. Make sure to use a spoon so you can get all of the mint mixture out of a bowl, as it’ll stick to the surface a little. Once all of the mixture is inside, use a whisk to stir it all together.

Notes

  • Mint sauce has a taste that will blend well with most of your favorite foods. But, there are obvious some meals that it’s better with as compared to others.
  • One example of this is roast lamb. Mint sauce tends to taste amazing with this meal, and most other roasted meats. It’s also very good with samosas, chicken patties, and crispy fries. You can even use it as a light topping on salads or certain kinds of rice. As I said earlier, it’s the type of sauce that goes well with most things.
  • So, since my recipe is so quick and easy to follow, you can make it multiple times and try it with all kinds of things! That way, you can find which meal it goes best with, other than the suggestions I shared above.
