Cranberry chutney - The delicious red fruity chutney

Hi Friends, 

Here I am with a quick cranberry chutney.  It looks beautiful red and you can use it with snacks, sandwiches, top it up on cookies and so many other ways. I added few spices like roasted cumin, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger to give it a taste of Indian chutney.
It’s simple easy to make.

Let’s quickly go through the recipe.. If you like it, please post your comments in the comments section. I would be glad to hear back from you.

Ingredients:
Fresh cranberries (2 cups)
water ( 1 and 1/2 cup or more if you want a runny chutney)
