In a super-frantic 15 minute challenge (Season 22 of Top Chef ™), Kat made a delicious and highly-rated banana nutella fried sandwich served with this sauce.
Ingredients
⅓ cup caster sugar
¼ cup water
2 cups raspberries
1 teaspoon arrowroot - optional
2 tablespoons Cognac
Instructions
Combine water and sugar in a saucepan and heat over medium temperature until the sugar dissolves and the syrup boils.
Stir in half the raspberries and cook for a few minutes, smashing the raspberries.
Then add the rest of raspberries and cook and smash them as well. Add the liqueur and boil off the alcohol. For a thicker sauce, add the arrowroot a pinch at a time and stir until thickened. Let cool to room temperature.
Strain through a sieve to get rid of seeds.
