Instructions

  1. 1 Place lemon zest and juice, orange zest, diced mango, ginger, cinnamon stick, star anise pod, orange juice, garam masala, salt, water, and sugar in a saucepan. Stir until sugar has dissolved.
  2. 2 Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low. Simmer until mango has softened and flavors blend, about 15 minutes.
  3. 3 Add cranberries, raise heat to medium, and cook until cranberries pop and begin to break down, about 10 minutes. Mash any unpopped berries.
  4. 4 Remove from heat and add 2 to 3 drops of ghost pepper hot sauce. Let cranberry sauce cool to room temperature and transfer to a serving bowl. Remove cinnamon stick and star anise pod before serving.
