Cranberry Sweet and Sour Sauce

This cranberry sweet and sour sauce is really simple and easy to put together and it’s delicious! It’s great as a dip, spread or sauce. It has a good vinegar bite to it with the sweet and sourness from the cranberries and hints of orange. Everything works together so harmoniously.

I love this recipe as a dipping sauce for my chicken cilantro eggrolls recipe CLICK HERE, it’s the perfect compliment to the eggrolls. You can use it with any other eggrolls too, It’s also great with soft cheeses, in stir fries, over some fried chicken or spread on sandwiches, wherever you use sauce it can be used.

This recipes can be blended for a smooth version, my preferred version by blending with an immersion blender, food processor or blender or you can keep it chunky if you prefer.
