If you’ve ever eaten Indian food, you’re probably familiar with green chutney. Traditionally, the popular and versatile condiment is made from a mixture of cilantro, lemon, chilies and coriander. This version doesn’t quite follow suit; instead, it offers an exciting twist to the conventional ingredients. Jalapenos, fresh lime juice, turmeric and cumin give this chutney spice, while mint leaves add a refreshing zing of flavor.

1 cup mint leaves, chopped

Juice of 3 limes
Pinch of sea salt, optional
Zest of 1 lime, optional
Directions
