Pudina coconut chutney / mint coconut chutney recipe is a South Indian style chutney using fresh mint leaves and coconut. Fresh mint leaves add so much flavor to this simple chutney. There are so many variations to the traditional coconut chutney and this is one of my favorite chutney recipes.

Apart from the lovely flavor that they can impart to a dish, the humble mint leaves have health benefits. They purify the blood and can also soothe an upset stomach.
