Mint Sauce

Mint sauce is a traditional sauce originating from the United Kingdom. The sauce is usually made with a combination of mint, wine vinegar, boiling water, a pinch of sugar, and a pinch of salt. The mint leaves are sprinkled with salt, chopped, mixed with sugar, and stirred in boiling water. Once cooled, vinegar is stirred into the mix, and the sauce is then seasoned to taste. However, there are a few other variations apart from this traditional version, and some mint sauces may include other ingredients such as raspberries and lime juice. British mint sauce is traditionally served with roast lamb as part of Sunday roast (Sunday lunch).
