ANARASER CHUTNEY / PINEAPPLE PICKLE

This sweet and tart chutney dish you must have after lunch. It is another delectable chutney preparation from Bengal. Pineapple is a tropical fruit and source of vitamin A & C. It serves in various occasions, from festive feast to wedding parties. It can be made in various ways, but here I am sharing the easiest and simpliest way to make scumptious anaraser (pineapple) chutney.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup Pineapple Chunks, cut into small cubes
3-4 tbsps Sugar (according to taste)
1/2 tsp Mustard Seeds
1 tsp grated Ginger
1 Bay Leaf
2 tbsps Raisins
2 Dry Red Chillies
1 tsp Cumin Seeds
1 tsp lemon juice (optional)
1 cup Water
1 tbsp Oil
Salt to taste

METHOD:
Dry roast dry chillies and cumin seeds in a pan. When nice smell comes out, remove from heat, set it cool and pound coarsely. Keep aside.

Heat oil in a frying pan. Add mustard seeds in it. When it pops up, add Cubes of pineapple and ginger in it. Fry for 2-3 minutes. Now add water, sugar, bay leaf, raisins and salt in it. Fold well and keep it covered. stir occasionally.

When it becomes thick, add lemon juice and pounded spices in it. Mix well and remove from heat.
Let it be cooled before serving.
