Elderberry sauce
Serve with duck breasts or venison. Elderberries can be found in hedgerows in the British countryside in the autumn.
What you need
- 450 g elderberries (2-45 ml reserved)
- 1 small onion, peeled and chopped
- seasoning
- 150 ml red wine vinegar
- 350 g sugar
Method
Place all ingredients (except the reserved elderberries) in a large pan. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer until onion is soft. Cool slightly.
Press the mixture thorugh a nylon sieve. Return to a clean pan. Add the reserved elderberries. Cook until the required consistency is achieved. (If a thick sauce is preferred, cook until thickened in texture.)
