PREP TIME

MINUTES

Ingredients

  • 250g (8oz) raspberries, fresh or frozen

  • 60-75g (2 1/2 – 3oz) caster sugar

  • 300ml (10fl oz) whipped cream

Method

  1. Lay the raspberries out flat on a dish. Sprinkle on the caster sugar and allow to macerate for 1 hour. If you are using frozen berries this should be long enough for them to defrost. Purée the fruit in a liquidiser or blender. Pass the purée through a sieve to remove the seeds. Discard the seeds.

  2. Gently fold in the whipped cream. If you wish to create a 'swirly' effect, just be a little light-handed with the folding in of the cream.

  3. The fool is now ready to be served or can be chilled for serving later. Serve with shortbread biscuits.
