In many Indian households, particularly during the monsoon season, meals are often incomplete without a serving of the fiery yet soothing mint chutney that complements dishes like dhokla, pakoras, parathas, and vadas.

This fresh and tangy dip goes beyond mere flavour. In Indian kitchens, chutneys hold as much importance as the main course. Mint chutney is cherished for its digestive benefits and cooling properties. A happy stomach leads to a contented heart, as the saying goes.

However, the magic of mint extends beyond the dining table. Growing mint at home is equally rewarding. Moreover, homegrown mint boasts a superior taste, enhanced by the sense of accomplishment in nurturing it yourself.

Here’s a detailed guide to growing mint at home using a simple and beginner-friendly approach.
