The BG - Raspberry Wednesday – assembly and photos


You will not need a degree in rocket science for this but you will need a sundae glass! Mine measures 7cms in diameter and 18cms in height top to bottom .

Sprinkle half your crushed Amaretti biscuits
into the bottom of the glass
Drizzle the strawberry compote over the biscuits
Cover the compote with raspberries
Add one scoop of ice cream
sprinkle with the freeze dried raspberries

repeat as above

Decorate with a drizzle of hot sticky toffee sauce
as a guide microwave for 15 seconds per 40g
of sauce
one raspberry to decorate the top

This is what it looks like :



The secret in the sundae is the combination of the crushed Amaretti biscuits with the coulis – take it from a non dessert eater – WOW!

The coulis is the best recipe I've ever used and I've made a few. It's even better at the moment because both strawberries and raspberries are coming into their own – Nectar of the Gods. I'd even suggest making this coulis as a staple for your fridge it's so versatile – over ice cream with fresh fruit, over granola and fresh fruit for breakfast – I could go on.

This is just one idea for a sundae – it's a “fly by the seat of your pants” thing – make it your own.

It is extremely rare in this house to repeat a dish – after sharing the sundae, which by the way, H named because it was a Wednesday – he asked if there was enough for the following evening … not as large but yes … praise indeed!
