Green Garlic Chutney

Last fall we had planted garlic in our backyard, this spring we were cleaning up our garden to get ready for spring planting. Garlic bulbs were growing really nicely, but they are not ready to harvest yet. So to ensure that our garlic grows we cut some garlic greens. Instantly I thought of making this fresh garlic chutney. The garlic greens itself has immense garlicky flavor but I also added couple small garlic cloves to enhance more of that garlic flavor. 

Have it on a side with any Indian meal, we loved it especially with bhakri and pithla(Maharashtrian comfort food)!

We also tried it on sandwiches, Indian style scrambled eggs(also called as bhurjee), Quesadillas. 

Ingredients                                                          

15-20 sprigs of green garlic

1/3 cup cilantro

3 green chili's

2 small garlic cloves

1/2 inch ginger 

2 tbsp roasted unsalted peanuts(skin removed)

Salt as per taste

Juice from 1/2 lemon 

Little water as required

Method

Wash garlic greens, cilantro, green chilies and ginger. Peel ginger and garlic cloves. Grind all the ingredients into a blender using minimum water, chutney should not be runny but spreadable! Done, it's that simple!
