CRANBERRY SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE



Cranberry Sweet and Sour Sauce image

I made this sauce over meatballs at my daughter's wedding reception. It was a hit. Nice change from your regular sweet and sour. The cranberries give it just enough tartness. This recipe makes a lot so you may want to cut it down for smaller portions. It was enough for 280 1" meatballs.

Provided by Alskann

Categories     Meat

Time 15m

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
4 tablespoons cornstarch
2 (16 ounce) cans ocean spray whole berry cranberry sauce
3 cups pineapple juice
1 cup cider vinegar
6 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Mix brown sugar and cornstarch together in a medium sauce pan.
  • Stir in cranberry sauce, pineapple juice, vinegar, and soy sauce.
  • Cook over medium heat until thickened, stirring often.
  • Bring to a boil and boil for one minute, stirring constantly.
  • Serve over meatballs, chicken, roast pork, stir fried meats or vegetables.
  • Makes about 8 cups.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork: For this recipe, it's best to use a lean cut of pork, such as pork tenderloin or loin. This will help to ensure that the pork is tender and juicy.
  • Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and spices helps to add flavor and tenderize the meat.
  • Use a light touch with the cornstarch: When coating the pork in cornstarch, be sure to use a light touch. Too much cornstarch will make the pork tough.
  • Fry the pork in small batches: This will help to prevent the pork from sticking together and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When frying the pork, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will help to ensure that the pork cooks evenly.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what really makes this dish special. Be sure to use a sauce that is flavorful and has a good balance of sweet and sour flavors.

Conclusion:

Cranberry Sweet and Sour Pork is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal.
