Hot Blackberry Soup.

Ingredients.
5 cups water
1/2 lb fresh blackberries
2 oz vegan margarine
1/2 T whole-wheat flour
1/3 cup raw cane sugar
3 T chopped almonds

Preparation.
Put the water in the saucepan and add the berries. Bring to the boil and simmer until tender, then put them through a sieve. Return the sieved berries to the cooking liquid, discard the pulp.

Heat the margarine in a pan and stir in the flour. Add the soup gradually stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Sweeten (the amount given is only a rough guide as berries vary so much in sweetness) and simmer for about 10 minutes.
