| 12 oz (336 g) fresh or frozen cranberries | 1/2 cup hearty red wine or port | |
| 1 shallot, finely chopped | grated zest of 1 orange | |
| 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar | 1/3 cup fresh orange juice |
Bring the cranberries, shallot, brown sugar, wine, and orange zest and juice and to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often to dissolve the sugar.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring, for 10–12 minutes, or until all of the cranberries skins have burst. Let cool.
Transfer to a bowl and serve chilled or at room temperature.
