INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups CurrantC™ Blackcurrants
• 2 oz Caster Sugar
• 100 ml Water
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract optional

PREPARATION

• In a large pan, place the blackcurrants, sugar and water, bring to the boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
• Take off the heat (add the vanilla extract if using), then spoon the cooked blackcurrants into a sieve, over a large bowl.

• Pour the coulis into a bowl or jug, and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Thicken it: If you would like the coulis to be a little thicker, mix 2 teaspoon of cornflour (cornstarch) with enough water to make a thick paste. Return the smooth coulis to a pan, then whisk through the cornflour paste on a high heat, and wait for it to thicken up.
