Pear and Mint Chutney

A little twist to the regular mint - coriander or sweet tamarind chutney. This chutney will bring on the taste of the sweet pear as well as the fresh mint's minty flavor

It can be a great accompaniment to pakoras

Ingredients:

Oil: 2 Tbsp
Onion: 1 medium
Mint: 1 cup
Pears: 2 medium
Fennel seeds: 1 tsp
Cardamom seeds: 1 tsp
Salt: to taste
Pepper: 1/2 tsp


Wash and drain the mint leaves and roughly chop it
Roughly chop the pears
Thinly slice the onions
Heat oil in a pan and add the onions , cook until it turns soft
Once the onions turn soft , add the fennel and cardamom seeds saute well and remove it from fire
Allow it to cool for about 15 mins
In a food processor / mixer add the onions, chopped mint and pears along with salt and pepper
Puree until smooth, leaving a bit chunky texture
Store into air tight containers in the fridge for about 3 - 4 days
