 Mint coriander chutney, How to make pudina kothimeera chutney?Mint and coriander chutney can be prepared with mint leaves, coriander leaves, tamarind.Adding tamarind makes this chutney more tangy. If you don't want to be sore skip tamarind, instead of add tomatoes..Here I have included both of them.  Mint coriander chutney can be eaten not only in all breakfast items but also in rice. Consider making more than just Palli Chutney and Putnala Chutney in tiffins. You can store this chutney in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
