Tear the other clementine into segments (remove the membrane if you have time) and cook along with the cranberries for 2 mins more. Store in fridge, or freeze for up to 2 months.

    This is a brilliant recipe. I have made this for the past 2 years and give jars to friends as a Christmas gift. They like it so much, they start being nice to me as early as July to ensure they get some!! The taste is sensational and it creates a lovely Christmas smell in the house when making it! Try it, you'll never buy it at the supermarket again!

    I have tried all sorts of variations of cranberry sauce and this is my absolute favourite not too sweet also makes a lovely accompaniment to chicken liver pate

    Tried this for the first time this Christmas. The family loved it. Will never buy ready made cranberry sauce again.

    this is simple but oh so lovely. Ive made several jars (and of course one for me) while the cranberries were on special offer. I am going to give these as presents on christmas eve, decorated with dried orange and cinnamon sticks :-)

    Really great, finished the first batch up, it's been used on leftover ham, pate etc and going to make a second batch now. I love this as I'm allergic to oranges but not clementines, never thought I could eat cranberry sauce until I saw this recipe!

    The recipe says you can keep this in the freezer for 2 months but long can you keep this in the fridge?
