Cranberry Fruit Relish

cran13


This stuff is so much more satisfying than that jiggly stuff from a can.


cran1

The cast of characters: fresh cranberries, granny smith apples, frozen raspberries (thawed), orange marmalade, lemon juice, sugar. Cuisinart is optional but makes all the difference in amout of time it takes to make this recipe.


cran2

First finely chop cranberries and put in a bowl.


cran3

Second peel  (notice the really cool long unbroken peel.(continued after the jump)

cran4

Core


cran5

and quarter the apples.


cran6

Finely chop the apples in the food processor (notice there is no need to clean between ingredients.)

cran7

Drain thawed raspberries in a sieve.


cran8

Add to the other ingredients in the bowl.


cran9

Add a squeeze of lemon juice so the apples don't get brown.


cran10

Add the orange marmalade for a glossy shine.


cran11

Add the sugar for sweetness.


cran12

Stir it all together and voila....


cran14

The turkey only holds about a cup so I put more in another dish on the other end of the table.


cran15

makes about 6 cups and will keep in the fridge for Christmas use as well. 

This stuff is good enough to just eat it with a spoon.
