Cooking Apple Murbbo-Relish

Although i am not a huge fan of pickles and relishes....either they are very oily or loaded with sugar... but if someone offers , ofcourse i would have it, even my family they eat once or twice than it stays in their jars as showpiece....but since i've come back from India, i've started to eat again and making it too,in Gujarat, most households keep 3-4 variety of pickles and relish...they have it regular with their meal..and i got into a habbit of eating it whilst my stay in India, since i've come back i've made couple of pickles in a very small quantity....here is one of them. I've made this relish with cooking apples and some spices with sugar...

You will need:-

• 1 cooking apple grated without skin
• 3/4 cup Sugar
• 1 tsp oil
• 1/2 tsp Mustard seeds
• 1-2 small pieces of cinamon
• 2-3 cloves
• 2-3 cardamom crushed
• salt (optional) i didn't use it

Method:-

Heat oil in a non stick pan, add mustard seeds and spices after spluter add grated apple and mix well let it cook 1-2 minutes, now add sugar and mix.  Let the sugar melt and keep stirring well on a low heat for about 10-12 minutes. Add cardamom powder and let it cool....

Goes with any paratha, toasts or just have with your regular meal...if you can't get cooking apples use raw mango...
