Pudina or the mint has a special flavour which after savouring gives cool feeling to the tongue. It also contains essential oils which is helpful in stomach aches and chest pain.

I tried this Coconut – Pudina or Mint Leaves Chutney as a side dish with Avocado or Butter fruit Paratha. It tastes great with this. We can use this Chutney with regular Dosa, Idly or Paddu or Paniyaram. The blending of Coconut and Mint gives a good aroma and taste to the Chutney.
