Cranberry Sauce

| Fiona Kelly

Ingredients

2 cups water up to 2 cups sugar, 24 oz frozen cranberries (2-12 oz packages)

Directions

Measure the sugar into the pot. Adjust sugar to taste (less sugar if more tartness is desired). Add the water. Bring to a vigorous boil, stirring gently to dissolve sugar. Add the cranberries, and return to a boil, still stirring. Continue to boil until most of the cranberries have popped. If need be, use a stirring spoon to pop them. If you want runnier sauce, gently boil for 5 mins. If you want more gelled sauce, gently boil for 15 mins. When mostly cool, transfer sauce to a serving dish. Can be served hot or cold.
