The best mint sauce recipe ever!
Some flavour combinations are simply unbeatable because they are simply sublime. One such combination is roast lamb served with mint sauce usually as part of a traditional Sunday lunch.
Mint is a sharp refreshing herb. When used in a mint sauce the brightness of the herb and the sharpness of the vinegar also work particularly well to cut through the fattiness of the lamb. The succulent lamb the striking freshness of the sweetness of the mint from the sugar and the bite of the vinegar all come together on the plate to create what is considered a classic British flavour combination.
The other great thing about this sauce is that it is so cheap and easy to make at home. You don’t need to buy a jar from the shop when you can make a superior version in minutes. Fresh mint is found all over the British Isles growing wild and in gardens. You probably know someone who has mint even if you don’t grow it yourself.
