Ingredients

• 100 g Cornflour
• 500 G Frozen Raspberry
• - Vanilla Essence
• 200 g Strawberry
• 100 g Lemon
• 500 g Sugar
• 250 ml Lemon Juice Concentrate
• 100 g Salt
• 250 G Frozen Black Berry

Instructions

1. 1. Wash and prepare the strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Hull and chop the strawberries into smaller pieces.
2. 2. In a medium saucepan, combine the prepared berries, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries release their juices and begin to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
3. 3. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of plant-based to create a smooth slurry.
4. 4. Gradually stir the cornstarch mixture into the simmering berry mixture. Continue to cook on low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency, about 3-4 minutes.
5. 5. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the pudding to cool slightly before transferring to serving bowls or jars.
6. 6. Chill the Rote Grütze in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. Garnish with a splash of plant-based or a dollop of plant-based if desired, and enjoy!
