Berry Coulis

Ingredients

Berry coulis is simply a posh berry sauce with the seeds sieved out. It's divine drizzled over cheesecake or ice cream or swirled through yoghurt. Use fresh or frozen berries.

• 500g berries

• 1/2 cup sugar

• 1/2 cup water

• 1 tsp orange zest

• optional 1 tbsp Grand Marnier, Kirsch or berry liqueur

Method

Place berries, sugar, water and orange zest in a pot and bring to a boil. Simmer gently over low heat for 10 minutes, then let cool. Pour mixture into a blender and puree. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Add your choice of liqueur. Chill until ready to serve. Berry coulis will keep for a few days in the fridge or freeze in ice cube trays for later use.
