Home-made cranberry sauce

When I first moved to Spain cranberry sauce was unheard of, so I shopped online or asked family to bring a jar over for Christmas, because if there is one English tradition that 26 years in Spain has been unable to even make a small dent in, it's a traditional Christmas dinner with turkey and cranberry sauce. These days I make my own - it's dead easy and beats all the commercial ones available (much cheaper too).

Steps
- 1
Squeeze the oranges and get your ingredients together.
- 2
Put the orange juice and ginger into a pan (I used a thermomix, but it isn't necessary)
- 3
Add the cranberries and port and simmer over a gentle heat for about half an hour
- 4
Add the lemon juice through a seive to avoid any bitter pips. Test for sweetness and thickness. If you need to add sugar do so. And if you need to cook for a little longer, just add water.
- 5
The cranberry sauce will look darker than commercial versions. This is because it is natural and has no artifical colouring. Great with turkey, but also with other white meats, hams and cheese too.
