Summer Fruits Yoghurt Ice Cream

Summer Pudding Trifle

INGREDIENTS

  • 500g red currants
  • 700g fresh raspberries with a few extra to decorate
  • 170g caster sugar
  • 130-160g sponge fingers
  • 300ml double cream, whipped to soft peaks
  • icing sugar to finish

METHOD

  1. String the currants into a small saucepan, add the sugar and heat gently for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally until the fruit is soft, but still retaining its shape.
  2. Place half the currants in a sieve and squeeze the juice out - discard the solids and return the juice to the pan.
  3. Fold in the raspberies, stir well and heat gently for another 1-2 minutes, to encourage them to release juice, but not to cook.
  4. Transfer the fruit and syrup to a bowl and leave to cool.
  5. Arrange half the sponge fingers in the base of a trifle dish. Spoon half the fruit mixture over. Repeat with the remaining sponges and compote.
  6. Cover and chill for a couple of hours or over night.
  7. Smooth the cream over the surface and chill again.
  8. Serve decorated with raspberries, sprinkled with icing sugar.
