Red Currant Sauce image

Recipe I came up with to serve with a chicken dish but I think it would be also suited to other poulty and game meats. I didn't use a great amount of sugar so the sauce retains a bit of tartness from the currants which was what I was after rather than anything too sweet. Note that it's quite a thin sauce rather than a thick one, aimed at things like rice and battered items that will soak it up, but you could always thicken it with cornflour.

Time 30m

Yield 1 1/2 cups, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

300 g red currants
150 g brown sugar
3 tablespoons malt vinegar

Steps:

  • Combine ingredients in medium saucepan.
  • Start cooking over medium temperature and lower after a while to maintain a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
  • I started with frozen currants and cooked for 25 minutes, I imagine 20 minutes would be sufficient for fresh currants and the first 5 minutes was more or less defrosting them.
