You\u2019re planning a barbecue but you don\u2019t want to go overboard. If you\u2019re\u00a0wondering whether there is such a thing as a healthy barbecue, the answer is\u00a0yes! We\u2019ve already posted some original recipes<\/span><\/a> for such an occasion. Today, though, we\u2019re going to focus\u00a0on another vital component of any barbecue: sauces.<\/p>\n

Forget about bought ketchup and mayonnaise: we\u2019re going to get to work\u00a0making our own sauces for meat and vegetables\u2014a fresh vinaigrette, a healthy\u00a0barbecue sauce and a special yogurt sauce for vegetables and white meat.<\/p>\n

Fresh mustard vinaigrette<\/span><\/h5>\n

This sauce is great for fatty meats, as it adds a light, refreshing touch, as well\u00a0as a burst of flavour. To make it you\u2019ll need extra-virgin olive oil, Modena\u00a0balsamic vinegar, finely chopped onion and gherkin, a dash of lime juice and\u00a0wholegrain mustard. Stir all the ingredients together and season to taste. You\u00a0can always add a bit of cayenne or chilli pepper to spice things up a bit. If you\u00a0really can\u2019t be bothered to make your own, you can always buy a readymade\u00a0one.<\/p>\n

Homemade barbecue sauce<\/span><\/h5>\n

No barbecue would be complete without a sauce actually called Barbecue\u00a0Sauce. However, despite any purists\u2019 objections, we\u2019re going to give the recipe\u00a0a healthy, homemade twist by cutting down on the calories and additives. Start\u00a0with a homemade tomato sauce, made with fresh peeled and chopped\u00a0tomatoes, spring onion, garlic, salt and a little sugar to offset the acidity. Gently\u00a0fry and then give it a whiz in the blender. Once you\u2019ve got a concentrated\u00a0sauce, for every four spoonfuls of sauce add one spoonful of honey, half a\u00a0spoonful of soya sauce, a pinch of paprika and a few drops of tabasco. Finger-licking-good spare ribs on the way!<\/p>\n

Yogurt and mint sauce<\/span><\/h5>\n

We\u2019ll end with a special sauce for vegetables and white meat, e.g. chicken\u00a0brochettes with wild mushrooms, wild asparagus or courgette. Simply mix\u00a0together some creamy, low-fat yogurt, a dash of extra-virgin olive oil, a squirt of\u00a0lemon juice, salt, black pepper and very finely chopped fresh mint.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
