A Nutty Sauce

Carole's Chatter: A Nutty Sauce


I had some peanuts from a gift hamper and decided to use them in a sauce for some pork steaks.  The sauce was rich – not an everyday sauce but maybe just once in a while.

Ingredients:

Peanuts and flaked almonds
Pepper
Tart cherry juice
Crème fraiche
Dijon mustard
Salt
Brandy

You might also need some lemon juice or sugar if necessary to balance the sauce

Method:

I bashed up the nuts in a plastic bag using a pestle

Then put all the ingredients except for the brandy into a small pot and heat slowly.  When the sauce is well combined add a splash of brandy – my hand slipped and I had to cook most of the brandy out  for longer.

The sauce was very nice and no one flavour dominated – except the brandy.
