Bid your minor, I think. 2NT is a contract which should not be played under many circumstances.

It is a choice between opener's and responder's minor. Usually a 32(63) hand.
Opener should bid his shorter minor with 25(42), if he has enough confidence in partner.
3♣ would have been pass/correct (not making much sense, after 2♥ was passed).

Hmmm!!!! Possibly a request to be doubled by the opps?
Actually the only thing that half way makes sense to me is a hand with 3♥ and a 4-5 card minor looking for a 9 card fit and playing 3♥ if no minor fit is found? Obviously assumes some appropriate level of values.

A good sense of humour might be required. Such an agreement would insta-propel me into a 3-2 fit.

I'd rather think 2NT just asks the minor, while 3m is showing a suit of his own... KISS

Partner is acting the same as if 2♠ was bid in front of him . . . although at a later stage.
So, 2♥, (2♠), 2NT = asking for the minor should be the same as:
2♥, (Pass), Pass, (2♠)
Pass, (Pass), 2NT = asking for the minor
Partner want to push the opps to the 3-level . . . wants to see if 3m or 3M is the best to do so . . . 2NT is definitely not to play.
If partner would have bid 2NT with the intention to play and make it, he should have rather doubled for a better score.
