Ingredients
- 250 grams fresh raspberries
- 60 milliliters water
- 15 milliliters fresh lemon juice
- 30 grams honey
- 5 grams cornstarch
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing the fresh raspberries under cold running water. Drain them well in a sieve or a colander.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries, water, and honey.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture begins to boil.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing the raspberries to break down and release their juices.
Step 5
While the raspberries are simmering, in a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the fresh lemon juice to form a smooth paste.
Step 6
Slowly stir the cornstarch mixture into the saucepan with the raspberries, ensuring it is well distributed.
Step 7
Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture back to a boil for 1-2 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Step 8
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the coulis to cool slightly.
Step 9
For a smooth coulis, press the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, using the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
Step 10
Transfer the strained coulis to a clean container or bottle and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Step 11
Enjoy your low-fat raspberry coulis on top of desserts, pancakes, or even breakfast cereals!
