This is a great basic fruit chutney with a good balance of sweet and sour flavor. It's particularly good with a nice pork roast or roasted turkey. But it's also great served with roasted chicken.

1 lb fresh cranberries (4 cups)
2 small pears, peeled and chopped (to produce about 1 1/2 cups)

  • 2. Once it reaches a boiling, reduce heat to medium, and cook 25 to 30 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently.
