Pudina, dhania, kadi patta chutney

Pudina, dhania, kadi patta chutney recipe
- Aparna Rao
-      Ingredients - 1 bunch pudina, 1/2 bunch dhania  patta, few sprigs kadi patta, haldi, green chillies tamarind; seasoning- 1 teaspoon chana dal, 2 teaspoons udad dal, rai, jeera, methi seeds,3-4 red chillies, hing. Separate pudina leaves, dhania and kadi patta. Wash and keep ready. In a kadhai heat 1 or 2 teaspoonfuls oil, add in the leaves, salt, tamarind and green chillies. I put the tamarind as one whole and the green chillies in one side of the kadhai so that these can be removed easily. Cover and let it cook on low flame for 5 to 8 minutes.  You get a lovely aroma wih this blend. Once it's done pick out the tamarind and green chillies and put them into the mixie jar. Empty the kadhai and out all the leaves into a small vessel. In the same kadhai, add 3 to 4 teaspoonfuls oil, when it's hot add in udad and chana dals, when they are semi roasted add in rai jeera methi akkhi mirch and hing. Let it roast well together and add haldi at the end. Now grind the seasoning, tamarind and green chillies together. Then add in the leaves. One to two grinds and done. It is coarse ground together. You see all yhree texture in the chutney and it smells just right... enjoyyyy
