Ingredients
  

  • 6 slices Bread
  • 6 ounces Cream Cheese softened
  • 1 cup Fresh Cilantro Leaves packed
  • 10-12 Mint Leaves
  • 1-2 Small Green Chili Pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon Grated Fresh Ginger
  • 1 tablespoon Lime Juice
  • 1-2 tablespoons Water
  • 1 large Cucumber thinly sliced
  • Chaat Masala optional

Instructions
 

  • Combine the cilantro, mint, chili pepper, cumin, ginger and lime juice and water (as needed) in a small food processor or blender.
  • Mix until you have a smooth paste. Salt to taste.
  • Spread a spoonful of the cilantro mint chutney on one slice of bread.
  • Layer the cucumber slices over the chutney. Sprinkle with chaat masala or salt if desired.
  • Spread a spoonful of cream cheese on a second piece of bread and place it on top of the cucumbers.
  • Slice off the crusts and cut the sandwich into 4 pieces.

Notes

  • The chutney can sometimes be difficult to blend in large machines. I have a very small wet and dry spice grinder that is ideal for making small amounts of chutney.
  • Green chilis can vary in spiciness. Adjust the amount of green chili peppers you use according to your taste.
  • Chaat masala is an Indian street snack spice blend available in Indian food markets.
