Description

Mary Berry’s mint sauce is a traditional vinegar-based herb sauce made using fresh mint, sugar, and malt vinegar. It’s commonly paired with lamb but also complements a variety of savory dishes. This sauce is known for its refreshing flavor, slightly sweet and sharp finish, and beautiful green color.

Ingredients

  • Fresh Mint Leaves (25g / about 1 cup, finely chopped)

  • Malt Vinegar (4 tbsp)

  • Caster Sugar (2 tsp)

  • Boiling Water (2 tbsp)

  • Salt (a pinch, optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the mint

Rinse the fresh mint leaves, pat them dry, and finely chop them using a sharp knife or herb scissors. Place the chopped mint in a small bowl.

Step 2: Dissolve the sugar

Add the boiling water and caster sugar to the mint, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Step 3: Add vinegar and season

Stir in the malt vinegar and a pinch of salt, if using. Mix well and let sit for at least 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to infuse.

Step 4: Serve or store

Serve at room temperature with roast lamb or refrigerate until needed. Stir again before serving.
