Coriander chutney

Until recently, I used to prepare coriander chutney with only coriander which used to taste good when fresh but turn dark, grainy and separate water after 15 minutes or so. I tried this coconut combined coriander chutney that is the restaurant style one and it was good in texture, taste and color and goes perfectly with south Indian tiffin but may not go well with chats or parathas kinds.
