Cranberry Sauce With Port Recipes

Steps:

• Tip the port and sugar into a pan and bring to the boil. Add the cranberries, then cook for 5 mins for frozen and 8-10 mins for fresh until tender, but holding their shape. The sauce will thicken as it cools. Will keep in the fridge for 1 week or freeze for up to 6 weeks. Thaw for 2 hrs or overnight before serving.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, cook cranberries, sugar and wine over medium heat just until berries begin to pop, 10-12 minutes. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into cranberry mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until berries pop and sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Serve warm or cold. Refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the cranberries, brown sugar, orange zest and juice, and port wine. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer until the cranberries have popped and the sauce has thickened, about 15 minutes. Cool, and refrigerate overnight before serving.

Steps:

• Tip the cranberries into a saucepan, grate in the orange zest then squeeze in the juice. Add the redcurrant jelly, port and star anise and slowly bring to the simmer.
• Cook gently over a low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until all the cranberries have burst and the sauce thickens and looks glossy. You want to end up with a saucy texture rather than a jammy one - you will find fresh cranberries thicken the sauce more readily whereas the frozen cranberries will take a little longer.
• Stir in the sugar and taste. Chef Tony Tobin likes the sauce to have enough tartness to make you suck in your cheeks, but add more sugar if you prefer. Cool and then fish out the star anise. The sauce will keep in the fridge in a covered container for 1 week or for 2 months in the freezer.
• To serve, take out of the fridge an hour or so before the meal so that it returns to room temperature, then spoon into a serving dish.

Steps:

• Place the cranberries and the zest and juice of the oranges in a saucepan.
• Bring to a gentle boil, reduce heat and allow to simmer for 5-10 minutes until soft; stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the sugar and port and cook gently until sauce becomes pulpy.
• Let cool to room temperature, then pour into mold and refrigerate.
• Enjoy!
