INGREDIENTS 
===========

Coriander.                 1 - 2 big bunches

Green chilli.               8 - 10 ( add more if you want it spicy )

                                                     ========

1 . Blanch coriander and wash it well . Drain out the excess water .

2 . In the mixer jar , add coriander , green chilies , tamarind and salt . Grind to make a fine paste . PLEASE DON'T ADD WATER WHILE GRINDING.
                     
3 . Heat oil in the pan , Add mustard , After it crackles , add the coriander paste to it .

4 . Cook on medium flame till all the water gets evaporated . Keep stirring . As water gets evaporated , the paste starts forming a ball and looks dry .

5 . Once it is done , let it cool for some time . 

6 . Add lemon juice and mix well  . Store in a air tight jar and keep it in the fridge .

This chutney can be stored for 15 days or so . It all depends on how the water evaporates while cooking . 

It can be used for sandwiches , dosa , chaats ........
