How to Make Another Cranberry Apple Relish

  1. Roughly chop 12 ounces of fresh cranberries.
  2. Combine chopped cranberries and 1/2 cup currants in a medium saucepan. Add 1/2 cup water.
  3. Let the mixture stand for 20 minutes to allow the cranberries to soften.
  4. Cook cranberries, covered, over medium heat for 5 minutes.
  5. Add 2 medium diced, peeled, and cored sweet apples (Honeycrisp or Fuji) to the saucepan.
  6. Cook, covered, over low heat for 5 minutes, or until apples begin to soften.
  7. Increase heat to medium-high. Stir in 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to your preferred sweetness). Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until apples are very soft and the relish has thickened slightly.
  8. Remove from heat.
  9. Lightly mash the apple and cranberry mixture using a pastry cutter or potato masher to achieve your desired consistency. Leave some texture for a chunkier relish.
  10. Stir in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
