DARK LAGER CARAMEL SAUCE
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup caster sugar
1/2 can Sydney Brewery Dark Lager
1/2 heavy cream
METHOD
- Place caster sugar in a heavy bottomed pot over high heat until sugar melts to a golden amber colour.
- Add 1/2 can Sydney Brewery Dark Lager – careful as the beer & sugar will foam up and be extremely hot.
- Reduce heat, stirring constantly until liquid reduced by half.
- Once reduced add 1/2 heavy cream gradually, keep simmering on stove until caramel sauce reduces & slightly thickens.
- Strain mixture and set aside to cool before placing in refrigerator to chill overnight. The Caramel Sauce will thicken more as it chills.
- The caramel sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance.
