Khajoor ka achar – Healthy and digestive Date Pickle

khajoor ka achar- Date pickle -As we all know dates are very good for health .They are very good source of dietary fiber, Iron, potassium, calcium ,Vitamin A and many more, so it is advised to include few dates in your daily diet.

There are many varieties of dates cultivated.The pulp of fresh date is very soft and easily digestible so when eaten it provide instant energy,so they are used to break the fast during Ramadan month.

I have mentioned earlier that I love to make different types of pickles which I inherited from my mother and grandmother,My grandmother used to make a very delicious pickle from Munakka(Big Raisins),But unfortunately I forgot to note down her recipe, now from a bookmarked recipe I tried making that pickle with dates and Munakka and it turn out perfect.This Chatpata Khajoor is delicious,very good for digestion and to improve appetite.
