Cranberry Pickle Kalakai Thokku Karvand Koromcha Pickle Video Recipe
Cranberry Pickle

As mentioned in previous Cranberry Almond Chutney post today I am here with spicy Cranberry Pickle aka Kalakai Thokku Recipe. Like I said instead of Cranberry you can use Kalakai (Tamil) / Karonda( Hindi) for this same recipe. I used cold pressed gingely oil sent by amma (mom) and it tasted yum with the fresh pickle spice I made. The pickle stayed good for a month,

mostly we had it with curd rice and upma, here in the video tutorial and pictures I served it with Fried Rice and Millet Idlis (Recipe Soon).

Cranberry Pickle Preparation

  • Soak Cranberries for 30 minutes and wash 3-4 times as needed.
  • Pat dry over kitchen towel, later cut them into halves.
  • In a pan dry roast ingredients for the thokku.
  • First add methi seeds followed by mustard seeds.
  • Add salt and then paprika/ red chili powder / chili flakes (I used both).
  • Remove from flame and let it cool completely.
  • I use cast iron in most cooking even after switch off the gas it retains the heat and cooks the stuff, so take care and not to burn the stuff.
  • Powder the dry fried ingredients once its cooled down completely.
  • Add Gingelly/ Sesame oil to the pan.
  • Temper mustard seeds when it crackles add chopped cranberries.
  • Saute in medium flame for 2-4 minutes and in between mash it with the ladle.
  • Once it comes to pickle consistency add powdered stuff.
  • Cook in low flame for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Once cooled down do store in air tight container for future use.
  • I have served this thokku with veg fried rice.
  • Another day we had it with millet mini idlis (recipe soon)
  • Also for my younger one I made waffles out of this pickle .
  • Will post the Cranberry Waffle recipe next.
