No cranberries in Amsterdam, but still want the sauce

Posted by Lower Yeast Side, November 21, 2009

Hi all,
It's my first Thanksgiving in Amsterdam! After buying a 15 pound turkey for a price that made my poor student head spin, I'm ready to turn my attention to other Thanksgiving staples.
However, there's no cranberries in Amsterdam. Sadness.
Anyone have a recipe that would approximate my mom's delicious, nutty, chunky, tart and sweet cranberry sauce? They do have most other types of fruits here - maybe red currants would be a good approximation?
Cheers, and thanks for your help!
