Cranberry Raspberry Sauce with Mandarin Oranges

1 18oz jar of raspberry jam
2 cans of tangerines, drained

instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring the cranberries, orange juice and raspberry jam to a rapid boil and mix well.
When boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and cook for an additional 7-8 minutes, stirring often until thickened.
If necessary, skim the foam from the surface with a large spoon.
Add the drained mandarins and mash with a potato masher. Make sure to stir to incorporate well.
Simmer the sauce for another 2-3 minutes and remove from the heat.
Let the sauce cool slightly and transfer it to a serving dish. The sauce can be served lukewarm, at room temperature or refrigerated.

Apple and cranberry pie
