Indian Culture & Art in USA, a RedPatang.com Blog

With thanksgiving just around the corner, I was hoping to add a little Indian flavor to the traditional cranberry chutney.  I wanted a recipe that  good but also simple and quick to make .  So after some fruitless (pun intended :)) internet and recipe book browsing, I have come up with my own version of an easy cranberry chutney with an Indian kick.  Ingredients are underlined

Slice 1 large red onion into slivers and saute until it becomes transparent.  Add 1 tbslpn black mustard seeds. Quickly add the paste of 2 medium fresh garlic cloves, 1 tblspn red chilli powder , a pinch of Asafetida and 1 cup of fresh cranberries.  Simmer until cranberries are mushy and fully cooked.  Add 1 tspn sugar.  Blend and add salt to taste. 

That’s it!  Happy thanksgiving everyone!!
