Packed with Indian flavor, this delicious yogurt-based dip is ready in just 15 minutes. Cilantro is the star, but the bright flavor of fresh mint plays an important supporting role. Both should be stored in the fridge with their stems in a cup of water to keep them fresh. For a smoother, more vibrant-green dip, process all the ingredients in a food processor. Garnish the dip with mint or cilantro leaves or both. Serve it with warm regular or whole-wheat naan, pappadum (a thin, crisp, nutty Indian wafer), or raw vegetables. There are many ways to make this recipe: Try leaving out the mayo, adding more yogurt, or stirring in lime juice to taste.
