Homemade Green Ketchup with Mint and Coriander

Today, in the 5th week of Steemit Challenge 27, I will be participating in @afzalqamar Sir Homemade Green Ketchup with Mint and Coriander -competition, I hope everyone enjoys it.

*I will share today's beautiful recipe with everyone. Sir has taught us how to make recipes beautifully. So I have gained a lot of knowledge as a student, but today's recipe is green in color because of coriander leaves and mint leaves, and it is quite similar to the name. Let me answer 3 questions.

Since the recipe calls for mint leaves and coriander leaves, several ingredients are required to make ketchup. I bought these from the market. I will share the type of ingredients that are needed for ketchup below. I have made a lot of ketchup at home these past few days, so I will make less ketchup today.

• 250 grams of local tomatoes
• 15 grams of coriander leaves
• 15 grams of mint leaves
• 1 tablespoon of white vinegar
• 2 teaspoons of salt
• 6 green chilies
• 50 grams of sugar
• 1 cup of fresh water
• 2 teaspoons of cooking oil

I have reduced the amount of sugar because my family likes to eat less sugar. For ketchup, I have collected mint leaves from a long distance, as it is not available in the market in our area.

I will make the recipe with my little knowledge.

I first took mint leaves and coriander leaves. Since these leaves grow in the ground, they have a lot of moisture in them. I freshened them well with white vinegar and water to get rid of the moisture.

I drained the leaves and let them dry. If there is water in the leaves, the ketchup will spoil quickly. Then I separated the leaves and kept them in a small cup.

I washed the green chillies well and chopped them into small pieces, and put them in a bowl.

I put a bowl on the stove and boiled the green chillies in fresh water for a while, and then let them cool down.

I had already drained the water from my coriander and mint leaves, so I put some water in a juicer blend and pureed it well with some water and vinegar.

Then I added some other ingredients like boiled green chillies and salt, and pureed them well. Once it was pureed, I put it in the bowl, and it looked like this.

Then I took our country's tomatoes, cleaned them and chopped them into small pieces.

I will boil the chopped tomatoes, so I pour water into the pot, put the tomatoes in there, and continue to boil.

After some time, when it was cooked, I put it in a bowl to cool and let it cool.

When it was cool, I put it in a blender and blended it well. Then I put the blended tomatoes in a bowl.

I strained it through a sieve so that the seeds and skin were separated from it. After straining, only the liquid was left.

Then I put a pot on the stove on low heat and added cooking oil and sugar to it.

When the sugar melted, I added the liquid tomatoes to it and also added the coriander and mint mixture. It is better not to strain the coriander and mint mixture through a sieve, as this will give you the full taste of ketchup.

I cook it on a low flame for some time, when it thickens like this, I keep it in a fresh container.

My ketchup recipe is beautifully made, since it is mint and coriander ketchup, it looks very green, and the ketchup has a nice aroma. I have already tasted it, and I am very happy to make a very tasty ketchup. This kind of ketchup is not available in the market; ordinary tomato ketchup is also available in the market, but I am very happy that this is the first time in my seen it, and it is delicious.

I have prepared it attractively, and I have written my name and date on a paper. And I have kept it in a white container so that it looks nice, besides its color is green, and I have also kept some mint and coriander leaves in front of the container for clarity.
