Sauces
Mint Sauce
Ingredients
- 1 small handful mint leaves
- 1-2 tbsp. caster sugar
- 50 ml. boiling water
- 4 tbsp. white wine vinegar*
Method
1
Finely chop the mint leaves together with 1 tsp. of the caster sugar – this helps to fix the colour of the leaves.
2
Place into a Pyrex jug, add the remainder of the sugar (to taste) and pour over the boiling water. Stir well and leave to cool.
3
Now stir in the white wine vinegar and taste.
4
Add more of the white wine vinegar or water if necessary.
5
Leave to infuse for about an hour before serving.

* Don’t be tempted to use Malt vinegar, it is far too strong.
