This Amla Avocado Dip/ Chutney, flavored with fresh mint and coriander leaves, spicy with green chilies and Indian spices, and sweet with jaggery, is an indulgent chutney!
My blog is vibrant with so many dip recipes because I love variety when it comes to flavors. This Amla Avocado Chutney is my take on mixing traditional Indian Amla with creamy avocado.
I first tried avocado in Guacamole then I made a chocolate mousse using it and then a mango avocado salad. This traditional blend of Indian spices and fresh greens with Amla (Indian Gooseberry) was a hit in the family. If you know me, I am a fan of Amla and have curated so many recipes using it: Amla Pickle, Amla Candy, Amla Chutney, Easy Indian Onion Chutney.
Spread it on a toast, wrap or stuff it in pita bread, dunk bread pakora, bread rolls, onion fritters or fries in it for a quick snack!

Ingredients
See the recipe card for exact measurements of the ingredients.
- Fresh Amla - Adds a tangy and slightly sour flavor.

- Green Chili - Gives a spicy kick. Pls adjust the heat as this dip is very spicy for me.
- Jaggery - Balances the tangy flavor and the heat from green chili. You may add maple syrup as well.

- Indian spices- Garam Masala, black pepper, and red chili powder.

How To Make Amla Avocado Dip
Step 1 Wash, Dry and chop
Gather all the ingredients. Wash and dry the avocado and amla. Sort, wash, and put the mint and cilantro leaves in a colander. Let them drain excess water from the wash. Roughly chop the amla and green chilies. Roughly chop or grate jaggery (Gud).
Step 2 Blend everything
Add everything into a blender and blend to make a smooth paste.
Step 3 Serve It
The amla avocado dip in Indian style is ready. Serve it with nachos, spread it on a toast or have it as a dip!
Expert Tips
- Avocado should be soft but not mushy for a creamy texture.
- This chutney is very spicy. Start with a small quantity (just ¼th of one green chili) of green chilies or skip them and add if need be.
- Consume this dip the same day, as avocado will turn brown gradually.
- Store it in the refrigerator if made in summer.
