Bread Sauce

Bread Sauce

Bread Sauce is great with Turkey, along with Cranberry Sauce it is a must! Here is a really delicious, spiced  recipe that will delight your guests.

Ingredients
500ml       Whole Milk
3               Bay Leaves
Half an Onion
4               Cloves
Half tbsp    Nutmeg
3-4            Whole Peppercorns
100g          White Bread, cut into squares
25g            Butter

Method

Bread that is a couple of days old is best for this, if it is fresh cut it at least an hour in advance and leave it on a wire rack to dry out a bit.

Take your Onion an push the Cloves into it. Add this to a pan along with the Milk, Bay Leaves, Nutmeg and Peppercorns. Bring this to a gentle boil and simmer lightly with the lid on for 5 minutes.

Take off of the heat and leave to stand and infuse with the lid on for 10 minutes.

Strain the liquid into a clean pan and add the Bread. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until the Bread has broken down and you have a thick rich sauce.

Add the butter and season with salt.

Serve topped with grated Nutmeg.
