mint sauce
Green lamb accompaniment
Mint sauce is a condiment made from chopped mint leaves, vinegar, and sugar, traditionally served with roast lamb in British cuisine.
The sharp, tangy flavor cuts through the richness of the meat: Pass the mint sauce, please.
Not to be confused with the sweeter mint jelly common in American cooking.
