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.
