Topic: Mint Sauce from 25 years ago

[bramswell]

I remember being at school with a lad who's dad owned the Indian in town, I had asked him several times how they made stuff but he said he was only making the dip's, so this is the mint sauce that they made From about 25 years ago

1 cup natural yogurt
1 tsp. mint sauce
1 tbsp. mango chutney
2 tsp. lime pickle
1-2 tsp. sugar to taste
blend until smooth, may be thinned with a bit of milk.

Fairly simple, you may have to adjust chutney and pickle to taste, should be sweet with a spicy sour after taste. Haven't made this for ages and I don't remember using food colouring.

That's far more involved than anything I've ever been served as mint sauce. Probably gone off by now as well!  ;D

Wow

Thats very similar to Dips, only lime pickle instead of lemon juice, just goes to show the best always last!

How would you know?

The recipe, modulo the fact that I make less, is very similar to mine, but I omit the sugar because I find the mango chutney adds sufficient sweetness (indeed, it is for the sweetness that I add the chutney in the first place).  I also add a little yellow or green food colouring.

I've just made a similar version to this but I used Satkora pickle instead of lime and I missed out the sugar it's a thumbs up from me
