Ingredients

250 g blackberries fresh or frozen
2 tablespoon water
2 teaspoon honey or sugar or maple syrup
1 tablespoon chia seed
squeeze lemon juice

Instructions

Add the blackberries and 2 tablespoons of water to a pan and place on a medium heat. Cook gently for 5 minutes until the juices are running. (If you are using frozen fruit, you may need a minute or two longer.)
Remove from the heat. Stir in the honey, lemon juice and chia seed. Leave to thicken for 5 minutes. If you want, you can lightly mash the berries.

Notes

If using the sauce for a savoury dish, you could replace the water in the recipe with red wine.
