Honey and Raisin Sauce
Sauce au Miel et aux Raisins
2 Tbsp raisins
4 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp flour
1 cube instant chicken bouillon
2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp tomato paste
2 Tbsp vinegar (pref. white wine or cider)
Pepper
Rinse the raisins in lukewarm water. Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the flour and mix for 1 minute (do not let the mixture color). Gradually add 1 cup of water. Crumble the cube of chicken bouillon over the water and cook 5 minutes over low heat. Mix the honey, tomato paste and vinegar together. Pour this mixture into the saucepan and add the raisins. Mix carefully and cook 2 minutes. Pepper generously. This sweet-and-sour sauce goes very well with pork chops and grilled poultry.
