Ingredients
- 500 g (17.6oz) strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 300 g (10.6oz) frozen summer berries, thawed
- 450 g (15.9oz) strawberry yoghurt
- 200 g (7.1oz) fromage frais
- 16 mini meringues
- 50 ml (1.8fl oz) creme de cassis, or double cream
- 1 cup icing sugar, to dust
Step-by-step
- Find the biggest plate or casserole dish you have, and line the bottom with the strawberries and half the frozen berries (150g).
- Pouring straight from the pots, throw the yoghurt and fromage frais all over the berries. Use as much or as little as you like.
- Top with mini meringues in a pretty pattern, then dust with icing sugar.
- For the cassis sauce: blitz the remaining thawed berries in an electric mixer, then add the creme de cassis (again, as much or as little as you like!). Strain through a sieve and serve in a jug alongside the Eton Mess. Alternatively, enjoy with double cream.
