Method

Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the onions and a good pinch of salt. Cover and cook gently for 10 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the sugar, thyme and cranberries. Cook, covered, for 10 mins.
Add the vinegar and port or cranberry juice and boil, uncovered, for 10-12 mins until the liquid is nearly evaporated and the onions are soft. Cool, then transfer to a sterilised jar and seal.
Store in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months. Once opened, keep chilled in the fridge and use within 1 month.

Tip: To sterilise glass jars, wash in hot, soapy water and rinse well. Dry in the oven for 15-20 mins at gas 1, 140°C, fan 120°C until hot and completely dry. Boil metal lids and rubber seals for 10 mins, then leave to dry.
