In your blender/food processor container, soak the coconut with hot water while you gather other ingredients.
Roughly chop the cilantro, garlic, jalapeño, mint leaves, and add another 1/4 cup water. Blend at low speed and tamp down from time to time. Add lemon juice.
Add water sparingly to keep the contents moving.
Turn blender to high once the contents are moving freely until the chutney is puréed.
