Kothamalli Chutney Recipe – Green Coriander Chutney for Sandwiches

Coriander, also known as cilantro, is a welcome addition into any kitchen. Technically, the leaves are the cilantro and the seeds are the coriander, but this seems to mean one and the same these days. A usual snack for tiffin when I was in school used to be green chutney sandwiches. Sometimes there were mint chutney cheese sandwiches but most of the time, it used to be a simple coriander chutney slathered on some buttered bread. I absolutely loved the flavour and looked forward to break times when I had green chutney sandwiches in my tiffin box, waiting.

Getting fresh coriander leaves is very easy in Hyderabad since a lot of these farmer vegetable trucks park outside our apartments on weekends where most of the households buy their fresh vegetables from. They are especially generous with greens and for 5 rupees, I get a thick bunch of fresh coriander that I generously add to all my cooking and still have lots leftover. This coriander chutney comes in very handy then and serves as a good breakfast or snack slathered on some bread or toast.
