NOTES
- You can dry the mint in microwave, oven or air fryer as well. But we opted for the natural process.
- Do not dry mint directly under the sun as it can completely alter the colour, flavour, aroma and essential oils.
- Instead of whole, you can use powdered black pepper and cumins.
- In place of drying the entire stems and thereafter taking out the mint leaves, you can first pluck the fresh leaves from stems one after another and let the leaves turn dry. However we find the method, adopted in the present recipe, more easy and convenient.
