It's normal here. Maybe the flavour profile is different.

No,salt?

I only put a smidgen of salt in mine and only a smidgen of sugar. No water either but a little lime juice.

I'm already learning a lot. Didn't know mint is used for a sauce. I only knew that mint is ground with red onions, salt, a tiny bit of black pepper, and scraped raw coconut into a paste. Optionally with red chillies and vinegar.

That sounds delicious! What would you serve it with?

It's a versatile paste.
You can eat it with any flatbread or rice.
It's a great seasoning for chicken.(without coconut)
Indian and Pakistani people eat it with their celebrated "Biriyani."
