Serves 6 - 8

 

Preparation:  10 mins

 

Cooking Times: 15 mins

 

The quintessential accompaniment for Roast Turkey and other roast meats.

You can choose the optional choice to poach the fruit with Port for that extra luxury taste!

 

 

Ingredients

 

• 200g fresh cranberries (these can be frozen beforehand for up to three months)

• Stripped rind and juice of one large orange

• Half a glass of either Port or Red Wine

• 4 tablespoons of soft brown sugar (we used Coconut Sugar)

 

 

 

Method

 

1. Wash and strain the cranberries and then place in a saucepan.
    

2. Using a special parer, cut thin strips of rind from a large orange or you can zest it on a medium size grater - add this to the cranberries.
    

3. Squeeze the remaining orange and add this to the pan.
    

4. Now add four tablespoons of sugar and simmer gently for up to fifteen minutes.
    

5. As soon as the fruit is softened, remove from the pan.   Adjust for sweetness, if necessary.
    

6. Cool in the pan and then transfer to a serving dish.   Thereafter, store in the fridge for up to a week.
