Cranberry relish
Ingredients:
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup cranberry juice
- ½ to ¾ tsp freshly grated ginger
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- cranberries
- Zest of 1 orange (orange part only)
Method:
- Set the EGG for direct cooking without the convEGGtor at 190°C.
- In a Cast Iron Skillet, add sugar, juice and spices. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, syrup is clear and comes to a rolling boil.
- In a colander, rinse and pick over the cranberries to remove any mushy ones. Add cranberries to the boiling syrup and continue cooking, uncovered, just until they begin to pop, about 2-5 minutes – be careful not to cook them too long or they will get mushy. Skim the foam off the surface with a metal spoon and discard.
- Remove from heat, stir in orange zest and cool to room temperature, uncovered.
- Place in container, cover and store in the fridge for up to 3 months.
