Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 medium red onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon whole cumin seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon sugar-free garlic chili sauce
- 4 large apples, cored and peeled
- 1 large orange, peeled and chopped, with juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest, preferably organic
Instructions
- Select the Sauté function on the Instant Pot and adjust to the highest setting.
- Add the olive oil. Once hot, add the red onion, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, cumin seeds, and salt. Stir to combine, then sauté occasionally, until the onion is soft and translucent and the spices are fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Pour in the apple cider vinegar and deglaze the pot by gently scraping the bottom with a spatula to loosen any browned bits.
- Add the honey, garlic chili sauce, apples, orange, and orange zest. Stir to combine, then turn the unit off.
- Cover and lock the lid in place. Flip the pressure valve to Sealing and select the Manual setting on high for three minutes.
- When the cook time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for five minutes. Then, carefully do a quick release for any remaining pressure. Once the pin drops and no more steam escapes, remove the lid.
- Select the Sauté function again and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and the excess liquid is reduced, about one to two minutes.
- Turn the unit off. Serve immediately or store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to one week.
