Mint Peanut Chutney, a vegan and gluten-free chutney recipe made in south Indian style. This is very healthy and stays good for 2 days if stored in refrigerator. You can either use roasted peanuts or raw peanuts for this chutney / dip. It goes very well with idli (steamed rice cake) or dosa (crepes). Some of the chutney recipes shared in my blog, Thalippu Vengaya Vadagam Chutney, Kollu Chutney, Green Capsicum Pottukadalai Chutney, Coconut & Coriander Chutney & Gongura Chutney / Pulicha Keerai Chutney.
