Method

  • step 1

    Tip all the fruit into a bowl, then sprinkle over the icing sugar, lemon juice and elderflower cordial. Stir and leave to macerate for 1 hr.

  • step 2

    Whisk the double cream and vanilla extract, if using, to soft peaks using an electric whisk, then fold through the Greek yogurt and lemon zest. Gently fold three-quarters of the summer fruits through the cream mixture. Divide most of the remaining fruit between four dessert glasses, then spoon over the cream mixture and top with the rest of the fruit before serving. Will keep chilled overnight.

Recipe tip

If your crop isn’t ripe or the fruits aren’t in season, you can use frozen berries. Defrost, then mix with a little elderflower cordial and immediately continue with step 2.

This was easy and delicious. I made one and a half times the recipe and it served 9 people with a bit left over so I think the quantity is generous seeing as its quite a rich dessert. I couldn't really detect the elderflower so it probably wasn't necessary if you don't have any to hand.

This was delicious and gave me a chance to use a mixture of fruits from the garden. The mixture of cream and yogurt was just right, creamy but not too rich. The elderflower was subtle but you could taste it and it went well with the fruit.
