Cranberry Sauce

Ready in 15 mins, serves 8-10. This freezes well, so it can easily be made in advance for Christmas.

Ingredients

200g / 8 oz fresh or frozen cranberries
100g / 4 oz light muscovado sugar
grated zest and juice of 1 small orange
6 tbsp port or red wine

Method

1. Put the cranberries in a pan with the sugar, orange rind and juice and the port or red wine.
   
2. Stir over a gentle heat until the sugar has dissolved, then simmer for 5-8 mins until the cranberries have softened and the sauce is thickened.
   
3. Leave to cool, then spoon into a rigid container and store in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to 2 months.
