Ingredients

Method

  1. Put the sugar, orange juice and water in a saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Add the cranberries and bring to the boil, then lower to a lively simmer. Cook for 8–10 min, stirring now and then, until most of the berries have popped and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  3. Take off the heat and stir in the orange zest and salt.
  4. Pour into a bowl and leave to cool for about 1 hour; it sets into a soft jelly as it cools. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
