Garlic Chutney Ingredients

• fresh garlic (lahsun) - I highly recommend fresh garlic for this recipe. It will give you a very vibrant flavor. Try using purple garlic for a more intense flavor or elephant garlic for a more subtle elephant garlic chutney.
• red chili powder - There are many different kinds of red chili powders out there. I prefer one that gives off a more vibrant color. If the option comes up, I like to purchase it from India. Otherwise, I use the spicy version of what is available at the Indian Grocery Store.

See the recipe card below for a full ingredient list.

Garlic Chutney Preparations

Peel fresh garlic and then either crush or blend it using a chutney machine, blender, mortar and pestle, or a garlic crusher. The garlic does not need to be pureed. Instead, it should look shredded.

Then add red chili powder, fresh-cut cilantro, salt, and a hefty serving of oil. I sometimes add green onions to the mix to brighten the flavors.

Mix together and enjoy!

Pair it with…

The possibilities are really endless. We prefer to use this Gujarati garlic chutney with pav bhaji or dosa for extra flavor but it really pairs with many many things.

1. 00 Flour Pizza
2. Chaat such as Aloo Tikki Chaat
3. Sandwiches/Wraps using Hariyali Jeera Chicken - A Quick 10 Minute Recipe
4. Kichu/Papdi no Lout
5. Bhajiya/Pakora
6. On top of pasta for extra flavor
7. Spread on top of hummus
8. Eggs no matter how they are made
9. Dokhla/Khaman

Equipment

Garlic Crusher, Mortar and Pestle, Chutney Machine, or Blender is needed for this recipe. For ease and less clean-up, I highly recommend a garlic crusher to make this Gujrati garlic chutney. If using elephant garlic, be sure to cut it to allow it to fit in the garlic crusher.

Yes, you can! Use a good cooking salt to make this easy spicy garlic chutney and homemade chili oil. Either iodized salt or sea salt will be a great compliment to the recipe.

Honestly, whatever you have in your kitchen! In my experience, a knife that is darted will work better than a smooth edge but just have a sharp knife and it will work great!

I recommend using regular white garlic. However, if you prefer a less potent flavor then elephant garlic can be substituted to make elephant garlic chutney.

Coffee Maker Recommendation

Here is my favorite at the current moment! I love my Keurig Cafe Cup machine for the simplicity of cleanup and delicious end results.

Cold Brew is my absolute favorite. It requires patience since it has to be made a few days in advance to taste the best, but it is worth every sip.

Chai tea just means tea tea so its best to say just Chai. Chai Latte includes frothed milk.

Cardamom, ginger, lemongrass, mint, holy basil, cloves, cinnamon, etc.

The. Ingredients. Every coffee shop has their own way of making drinks with special ingredients that range with different brands.

Cold brew coffee is fresh grounded coffee beans that is mixed with cold water. It tastes best because it does not have a distinct strong flavor.
