Sweet, spicy and tangy cranberry chutney

I love the tartness of cranberries, sweet tartness of oranges and the spiciness of ginger. Combine them altogether and voila! You have a culinary masterpiece that keeps well in your refrigerator and be your best buddy and can go with anything - rice, sandwich, crackers. Why, I even use it with my oatmeal sometimes...So versatile! And u don't have to wait for Thanksgiving to do this. With canned cranberries you can have this all year round.

Ingredients:
1 can whole berries - cranberries
1 orange - take the zest
1 cup orange juice
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 inch fresh ginger
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar (if u like urs with a kick)
1 large shallot finely minced
Salt to taste

Combine the above in a thick bottomed vessel, let the ingredients come together and simmer for a while till it gets to the consistency of chutney. Bottle up the rest and Enjoy!
