Cranberry and Cherry Compote with Apple recipe

This recipe for Cranberry, Cherry and Apple Compote is perfect to accompany your Christmas meal.

Ingredients

1/2 cup (75 g) dried cranberries
1 x 410 g tin of black cherries
2 t (10 ml) grated lemon rind
3 T (45 ml) lemon juice
2 T (30 ml) sugar
pinch salt
1 apple, grated with skin on

Directions

In a medium size saucepan, mix the cranberries with the whole tin (juice and all) of cherries. Add the lemon rind, juice, sugar and salt. Leave to stand at room temperature for 30-45 minutes to allow the cranberries to swell.

Add the apple and bring to the boil for 10-12 minutes. Taste for sweet and sour - the sauce must have a nice balance.
