Cranberry Orange Sauce

Step 1

In a medium sauce pan over high heat, bring the orange juice, water and sugar to a boil. Add the cranberries, orange zest, and salt and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and boil gently for 10 to 12 minutes, until most of cranberries have burst open. (You may need to mash them a bit with a spoon.)

Step 2

Transfer sauce to a serving bowl. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
