Ingredients

  • 250 g cranberries
  • 3 pieces star anise
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1,5 cup fresh orange juice
Metric - Us customary

Instructions

  • Put all ingredients into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Once the sugar is all dissolved turn down the heat.
  • Leave to boil softly until all craberries have popped open. Take of the fire and remove the cinnamon and star anise. Put in a blender and puree until smooth. Be careful when turning on the blender as it is hot which means it will spatter too. You can also use a stick blender.

Notes

Notes on cranberry sauce

  • You can keep the cranberry sauce in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 weeks.
  • Don't use dried cranberries for making the cranberry sauce as that will not be a good result
  • You can use frozen cranberries as the result will be the same as with fresh cranberries
