How To Make simple cranberry sauce
-
Step 1Place the cranberries in a colander and rinse them. Pick out and discard any damaged or bruised cranberries.

Step 2Put the water and sugar and orange peel in a medium saucepan on high heat and bring to a boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar.

Step 3Add the cranberries to the pot and return to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until most of the cranberries have burst.
