Steps

  1. Bring sugar, orange juice and water to a simmer in a saucepan, stirring to dissolve.
  2. Add cranberries and simmer 8–10 minutes, until most berries have burst.
  3. Stir in zest and salt.
  4. Cool to room temperature — it thickens a lot as it cools — then refrigerate.
Tip: Keeps 1 week in the fridge, so it's an easy job to cross off early.
