Cranberry, Orange and Ginger Sauce

This is a twist on regular cranberries sauce for something different on Christmas Day. This sauce goes well with Nut Loaf and faux meats. Original recipe from Animals Australia. If you have trouble finding cranberries or red currents (or just want a short cut) you can substitute store bought cranberry sauce for the cranberries and sugar and just whisk in with other ingredients.
