Mint Tea Sandwich with Roasted Garlic and Sun Dried Tomatoes Cream Cheese
Mint is one of the easiest herb to grow at home, Infact if not contained this completely takes over the garden. Mint adds flavors lots of dishes like marinates,Biryani's , Chutneys and salads.I do grow mint and few other herbs in my yard

It is pouring cats and dogs in Bay Area, does not seem like spring weather.Had few unexpected guests at home for tea, so decided to make tea sandwiches, Tea sandwiches are a tradition in Europe . Tea is enjoyed leisurely with a variety of finger sized sandwiches and wide variety pastries.

For today's sandwich decided to make mint chutney along with roasted garlic and sun dried tomatoes.Roasted garlic has a very sweet taste, but if over burnt sweet taste turns bitter. I oven roast garlic by cutting the top off and by drizzling Olive oil and bake in the over for about 15 minutes at 400.

1 bunch of mint leaves
1/2 bunch of Coriander

Grind all the above ingredients in a food processor into a fine paste, Amul butter can be substituted instead of cream cheese.

Process
1. Spread a layer of mint chutney on a slice of bread
