Macerated Roast Blueberries are the perfect accompaniment to game, but are also delicious with pork, and I love them with roast chicken and a cheesy nut loaf! Heck, pour on some cream or ice cream, and they make an amazing dessert!

Grilling and macerating the blueberries, with a touch of sugar and vodka, concentrates and enhances their flavour and texture; they bring a welcome, sweet, fruity balance to a range of protein rich meat dishes. They are also exceptionally quick and easy to make; you’d be mad not to!
