dried cranberries

Pilaf in general is a wonderful dish.  When you mix the lamb and the seasonings in with it, it is absolutely amazing.  I did some research to see what other dried fruits that they used in this region.  I found that cherries, figs, and apricots were used quite a bit in this style of cuisine.  This dish was something like I have never made before, and it is something that my family has already requested again. I made a Turkish Yogurt Dip to go over it, and homemade Naan Bread.  We made a full meal out of it.
