You Need

Serves 6-8

  • How To

    1. Rinse and pick over the cranberries, discarding any that have turned. Place them in a small/medium saucepan.
    2. Add grated pear to the cranberries.
    3. Rinse and zest the orange, preferably in large strips for easy removal after cooking. Squeeze the juice over the cranberries.
    4. Add the cinnamon stick, cloves, and star anise. Sprinkle over 1-2 tbsp of cold water, depending on the juiciness of the orange.
    5. Bring to a boil over medium heat and stir. Cook for 10-12 minutes until the cranberries start to pop.
    6. Transfer to a glass jar or bowl. This sauce will keep in the fridge for up to two weeks. Enjoy!
