This recipe is so delicious and easy to make it is a shame if you do not make it more often when ever cranberries are in season. It makes a delicious salad for week nights.
I add a little some thing extra to my version of this classic.
This is what you will need to make about 1 cup of relish:
1 medium unpeeled orange and:
eeeee 1 tablespoon zest
1 12-ounce package fresh cranberries
¾ cup sugar
1-2 tablespoons Triple Sec*
Lime slices for garnish
*Optional and may not be appropriate for children. Can use any flavored liqueur that rocks your boat.
Here is what you do:
Wash and drain the cranberries. Wash the orange too.
Using a zester zest the orange to make about 1-2 tablespoon of zest.
Cut the orange into fourths or eighths , or even into sixteenths depending on how big your food processor is. Remove all seeds from the orange.
Again, depending on how big your food processor is add one-half or one-fourth berries and 2 or 3 orange pieces into the bowl.
Pulse until the fruit is evenly chopped to the size of pickle relish.
Transfer the contents of the processor into a bowl.
Continuing pulsing until all the fruit has been chopped and place it in the bowl. Add the sugar, zest, and the Triple Sec if using.
Can be stored in the fridge for up to 1 day.
When ready to serve slice the lime. Make a short slit in one half of the circle.
Twist the lime slice and place on top of the Sauce.
Bon appétit!!!
