ROTE GRUTZE
This puddinglike German dessert is generally made with fresh red currants as the base. Adding other red fruits, such as raspberries, strawberries, and cherries, is common, but if doing so, use them in place of the second pound of currants in step 2. This dessert is also nice topped with creme anglaise instead of whipped cream.

BAROSSAN ROTE GRUTZE (RED GRAPE SAGO PUDDING)
(rota-gritz-ah) This is the stuff kids in the the Barossa Valley, in Australia, grow up on. The Silesian migrants brought the recipe when they settled the Valley however it was made with berries in their homeland. Usually served as dessert with cream, it can be eaten as breakfast during festivals. Preferred grapes are Shiraz or Mataro (Mouvedre). Please note: start with fresh grapes not juice - I had to do the recipe this way for Zaar. Hard to give exact measurements as depends on juiciness of grapes. (Australian tablespoon = 20mL)

ROTE GRÜTZE
Steps:
- 1. In a large saucepan, combine berries, wine, cinnamon stick, and sugar. Cook over low heat until berries are very soft, about 20 minutes. A texture to the pudding is desirable, so don't overcook lest all the berries liquefy. 2. In a small bowl, whisk cornstarch and water until dissolved. Add starch mixture to the berries and stir well to avoid lumps. Simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove cinnamon stick, and pour the berry mixture into a bowl or container. Let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes, then cover and thicken in refrigerator for at least 2 hours, up to overnight. Vanilla Sauce: 1. Bring milk to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. Set aside. 2. Whisk egg yolks, sugar and salt together in a medium bowl until the mixture is thick and well-blended. 3. Slowly pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, whisking constantly. Return to pan. 4. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 15 - 20 minutes, or until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not allow sauce to boil. 5. Immediately pour into a glass bowl and stir in the vanilla. 6. Cover the top of the sauce with plastic wrap to prevent a skin. Refrigerate until needed.
GERMAN RED BERRY SAUCE OR COULIS (ROTE GRüTZE)
I found this recipe in a German cookbook, cannot even remember which one. I needed a recipe to use up all the red currants my mother has growing in the yard.I got tired of making jam. Since many of the berries mature at different times of the year some have to be used frozen or from a jar. It would depend on which time the year you make this, but you can use either or. This is great with pancakes, vanilla ice cream, pound cake etc.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan over a medium heat, cook the fruits in their juices and syrup, along with 150ml of the cranberry juice, the vanilla extract, cinnamon, sugar and rosewater for about 20 mins or until the fruits are soft.
- In a separate bowl, mix the remaining cranberry juice with the cornflour until it becomes smooth and milky without any lumps. Pour slowly into the hot fruit and continue stirring until mixed in well - the compote will thicken after a couple of mins. Remove from the heat and leave to cool. Transfer to a bowl, cover and chill in the fridge for a few hours before serving for best results in texture and flavour. Will keep for up to 1 week.
- Serve the compote in ramekins, small bowls or clean jam jars, with a generous dollop of vanilla custard. Sprinkle the chocolate shavings and pomegranate seeds on top, and finish with the mint leaves.
