Cranberry Pickle

Cranberries have:

• High concentration of antioxidants, 
• High potassium, 
• Vitamin C 
• Manganese 
• dietary fiber 
• low in fat 
• low in calories-only 51 calories per cup from fresh cranberries. 

Use raw cranberries in a variety of food items to add a tart, fresh flavor to salads, relishes and other dishes.  While shopping at Costco, I saw fresh cranberry packet. I thought why I don’t make cranberry pickle?. I am a pickle lover.  So I tried it. It came so yummy. It’s so crunchy, sour and spicy taste.  It’s healthy also, just need 1 tbsp of oil  to make this pickle.You can make this pickle within 3 minutes. When I make this pickle I always remember  Horlicks Ad "Appadiye sapidalam".  It goes with curd rice.

Cranberry                                 450 gms

 Pickle masala powder               ¼ cup  (See the Link)

Mustard seeds                            1 tspe

• Clean the cranberry with paper towel.

• Now add cranberries just  stir for few seconds
• Mix well. Switch off the stove
• Store it in glass container and refrigerated it.

You can also use Deep Pickle masala Powder.

You can also make cranberry chutney.  Use the same my apple berry chutney’s recipe, instead of apple and berries use cranberry itself.
