mixed soft summer fruits, such as strawberries, raspberries,
blueberries, redcurrants and blackcurrants
vanilla
ice cream, to serve
Method :
Stir the
redcurrant from their stalks using a fork and place in a bowl with the
raspberries, sugar and crème de framboise. Cover and leave to macerate
for 1-2 hours. Put this fruit with its macerating juices in a pan and
cook gently for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is
just tender.
Pour the
fruit into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Press
through a nylon sieve to remove any pips. Leave to cool, then chill.
Divide the mixed soft fruit among four individual glass serving dishes
and pour over the sauce. Serve with scoops of vanilla ice cream. Make the most
of glorious seasonal fruits in this refreshing dessert. The sauce is
also good swirled into plain or strawberry flavored fromage frais.
