Ingredients

  • 300 ml double cream
  • 4 meringue nests, crushed
  • 400 g strawberries and raspberries
  • 1 tbsp icing sugar

Method

  1. Prepare the fruit. Halve the strawberries. Mash a third of the berries with the icing sugar.
  2. Whip. Whip the cream to soft peaks.
  3. Fold. Fold the meringue, whole berries and mashed berries through the cream in swirls. Serve straight away.

Chef tip

Stop whipping while the cream is still soft. It thickens more as you fold.

Storage

Eat straight away.

Swap it

Use Greek yoghurt for half the cream.
