Think you’re not enough of a cook to contribute to Thanksgiving? Not true, you can make a delicious cranberry sauce in no time! It’s simple, quick, and gives your Mum a little break…

Homemade Cranberry Sauce

1 orange

1 12 oz package of cranberries

1/2 cup of white sugar

1/2 cup of orange juice

1/2 cup of cranberry juice

In a saucepan over medium heat, add the juice, sugar, zest and flesh of an orange.

Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Add the cranberries and cook until they pop. I continue cooking until all of the cranberries have burst. Turn off the heat and allow to cool. The cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.

I make a day in advance so that it gels up and the orange flavor is infused.
