Ingredients
Ingredients
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 1 orange (with peel on)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the orange: Slice the ends off the orange just until you see the flesh, leaving the rest of the skin and peel intact. Then cut the orange into 8 wedges.
- Process the ingredients: Place the fresh cranberries, orange wedges (with peel), and granulated sugar in a food processor. Pulse and process until the mixture is smooth or until no large chunks remain, ensuring even consistency.
- Chill the relish: Transfer the cranberry relish to a container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. It can be stored refrigerated and used within 1-2 weeks.
- Serve: Enjoy the cranberry relish as a condiment by serving it over turkey, chicken, or pork loin for a bright, flavorful addition to your meal.
Notes
- The orange peel adds extra zest and flavor, so be sure to keep it on while slicing.
- Adjust the amount of sugar to taste if you prefer a tarter or sweeter relish.
- You can prepare this relish up to two weeks in advance as it stores well in the refrigerator.
- For a chunkier texture, pulse fewer times in the food processor.
- This relish pairs wonderfully with holiday poultry and pork dishes.
