Cranberry-Chive Butter

Ingredients:

• 1 cup unsalted butter (250ml)
• 1/4 cup fresh cranberries (60ml)
• 1/4 cup chopped chives (60ml)
• 1 x shallot chopped fine
• Salt and pepper to taste

Pick over some fresh cranberries, discarding the ones not ripe. Place in a pot of boiling water for 3 minutes. Once cooked, remove from water, strain into a bowl and set aside to cool.
Finely dice shallots and add to a second pot of boiling water for one minute. Once cooked, remove from water, strain into a bowl and set aside to cool.
To a blender add room temperature unsalted butter and cooled cranberries. Blitz for a few seconds leaving the cranberries slightly chunky. Place mixture into a bowl. Add cooled shallots, chives, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Next, roll the butter in plastic wrap to create a sausage shape. Twist the ends and then put into the refrigerator overnight.
