Fiery cranberry sauce

Ingredients for 1 servings:

• 500 g cranberries, fresh (cranberries)
• 150 g sugar
• 250 ml water
• 1 orange(s), organic (unsprayed)
• 2 chili peppers, fresh red
• 1 cm ginger, fresh
• ½ tsp vanilla, ground
• 1 pinch(s) of salt, if desired

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 40 minutes

Made from fresh berries, a spicy side dish to meat or cheese, also suitable as a dip for fondue and raclette

Wash, sort, and drain the cranberries. Wash the orange in hot water, zest, and squeeze out the juice. Trim the chili peppers, halve them, and slice them into thin strips. Peel the ginger, and finely grate or very finely dice the flesh. Place the cranberries in a saucepan with the orange zest and juice, the prepared chili peppers, ginger, water, sugar, and vanilla. Cook for about 10 minutes while stirring, then season to taste with a pinch of salt. Allow the sauce to cool before serving; it will keep in the refrigerator for about a week. If the sauce is poured into clean jars while piping hot, it will keep in the pantry for about six months.
