This is a simple way to serve summer berries.

Method

  1. To make the coulis, heat the sugar in a saucepan with the water until the sugar has dissolved. Then add the raspberries to the pan and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until they're soft.
  2. When the coulis has cooled slightly, blend it in a food processor and then sieve it to make a smooth sauce.
  3. Next, put the ice cream or fromage frais onto a serving plate and pile the berries on top to cover the 'treasure'.
  4. Sieve the icing sugar over the berries and the plate and decorate with a sprig of mint.
  5. Pour the fruit coulis around the berries and then put half a tablespoon of double cream at even intervals around the fruit.
  6. Finally, drag a pointed knife through the cream and coulis to make a pattern.
