raisins were my childhood treat, so this sounds like a delicious way to liven up an old favorite :)FROM NAMI-NAMI (Nami-Nami.blogspot.com)
(makes 4 servings)200g seedless raisins
1.5L of water
sugar, to taste
1 cinnamon stick
3tbsp potato starch or cornstarch/cornflour
Directions:
1)Wash the raisins & soak in a bowl of boiled water overnight (the latter is not absolutely necessary, but it shortens the cooking period).
2)Place raisins & water into a saucepan & bring into a boil.
3) Season with sugar (careful here, as raisins are naturally sweet), throw in a cinnamon stick.
4) Simmer on a medium heat until raisins are all plump & softened.
5) Mix the starch w/some cold water & pour into the raisin soup, whisking constantly to avoid clumps. (If using potato starch, remove the saucepan from the heat the moment it starts to bubble lightly again. If using corn starch/cornflour, bring into a boil & simmer for couple of minutes.)
6) Pour into dessert bowls & sprinkle some sugar on top.
7) Serve with whipped cream, curd/farmer's cheese cream or softened vanilla ice cream.
