Dahiwali Pudina Chutney or the Indian Mint Yogurt Dip is one of those ubiquitous restaurant dishes that I rarely make at home (don’t ask me why). However, in recent times, I have started making it often because it goes well with so many dishes.
Regular readers of this blog will know that I love dips, relishes and and chutneys more that the dishes they are accompaniments for. 🙂 So I love to try a variety of dips so that I can enjoy variety.
Dahiwali Pudina Chutney or Mint Yogurt Dip is a great accompaniment for all kinds of kebabs and dry tandoori starters. This is a very easy dip to make and it can elevate starters to a new level. You can also make this chutney in advance and store it for quite a while, if you refrigerate it.
If you make this Mint Yogurt Dip with hung curd, you can even use it as a sandwich spread.
