Cranberry Coulis

Ingredients

• 2 C whole fresh or frozen cranberries
• 1/3 C water
• 2 or 3 sprigs fresh rosemary
• ¾ C maple syrup or sugar
• ½ C orange juice

Instructions

1. For coulis, combine cranberries and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes or till berries just begin to pop. Remove from heat and cool slightly. When just cool, press mixture through sieve. Discard skins.
2. Stir sugar and orange juice into juice and place sprigs of rosemary in pan. Bring to a simmer and cook until it begins to thicken. Remove rosemary sprigs.
3. Drizzle over dish while warm or cover and refrigerate coulis till thoroughly chilled and use later. Mixture thickens slightly as it chills, so you may need to add a bit of liquid when you reheat it.
