HOW TO MAKE EASY MINT SAUCE

Steps:

• Wash the mint well and discard any stalks which are thick and tough. Then chop finely.
• Place the mint in a bowl and add 1 Tablespoon of the vinegar. Give it a stir and it should be a thick consistency, like in the photo. If you need a little more vinegar, add a little at a time until you are happy with the thickness. You should be able to have a blob of mint sauce on a teaspoon without it being watery.
• Next, add a few teaspoons of sugar and stir well. Taste the mixture, and add a little more sugar until it is as sweet or sharp to your liking. Some people like mint sauce very sweet, others like it sharp, so you must judge for yourself and taste as you add.
• Once you are happy with the balance of taste, place in the fridge (minimum 30 minutes) until you are ready to use. It will keep in an airtight container or covered with plastic wrap for a few days.
