Steps:

• Grind green onions, mint, olive oil, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes in a food processor to a coarse paste; transfer to a bowl. Add yogurt, salt, and black pepper; stir with a fork until blended.

CILANTRO CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Remove all the hard stems/stalks from the cilantro, the tender ones are okay to have and then wash the cilantro.
• To a blender add the cilantro leaves, green chili, ginger, cumin powder, chaat masala, black pepper and salt. Also add in lemon juice and sugar.Add yogurt to the blender. I have used vegan yogurt here in this recipe (plain almond milk yogurt). You can also use plain milk yogurt.
• Blend it all together to a smooth consistency. If your chutney has a runny consistency, you may add a teaspoon of sev or peanuts to the chutney to make it thicker. Add 1 teaspoon at a time and then go from there.
• Keep this cilantro chutney refrigerated and use it as needed. You can also freeze the chutney.

MINTY YOGURT CHUTNEY

• Using a food processor or blender, grind mint, cilantro, chiles, scallions, salt, sugar and cayenne to a purée, adding a small amount of water if necessary.

10-MINUTE MINT RAITA (RESTAURANT-STYLE)

Steps:

• Optional - Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and toast, stirring and shaking the skillet often, for 1-2 minutes. The seeds will deepen in color and become highly aromatic. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Then use a mortar and pestle to grind to a powder. Set aside.
• Add the cilantro leaves, mint leaves, Serrano, garlic clove, ground cumin, salt, lemon juice, and 2 tbsp water into a (preferably small) blender. Blend, scraping down the spice grinder/blender as needed, until it reaches a fine consistency. If needed, add another tablespoon or two of water to make it easier to blend. It should become a runny paste, with the leaves no longer visible.
• In a small bowl, whisk the yogurt until smooth and no longer grainy. Stir in the crushed green paste. Taste and add salt or more lemon juice, if desired. For a thinner, restaurant-like consistency, add ½-1 tbsp of water. See notes for how to store.
