Cilantro Peanut Dip (Dhaniya Chutney)

Cilantro peanut dip (known as chutney in Hindi) is the best dip/spread you'll ever taste... I guarantee you that... just give it a try!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup roughly chopped cilantro (hara dhaniya) - including stems is ok... rather it is encouraged!
• 2 tbsp roughly crushed peanuts
• 1½ tsp minced serrano pepper
• 1 tsp grated ginger
• 2 cloves garlic
• ½ large lime's juice (you can increase/decrease this per your liking... my advise would be to start with less quantity and add more as necessary)
• 1½ tsp sugar
• Salt to taste
• 1-2 tsp water (optional) - this is just to help the pureeing process 

Method:

• Add the cilantro, peanuts, serrano pepper, ginger & garlic to a food processor and puree together using water if necessary

• Once you get this into a paste-like consistency (you should continue until you don't see any cilantro leaves/stem in its original form), add in the lime juice, sugar, salt and mix them together

Serving suggestions:

This is a great healthy recipe that can be used as a spread on bread/english muffins/etc or as a dip with tortilla chips... Serve it with anything that suits your fancy! :)
