INSTRUCTIONS

MERINGUE
BLACKBERRY SAUCE
Set oven to 120°C/240°F/gas mark 1/2
Make the vanilla custard. Sprinkle breadcrumbs and lemon zest into a
pretty oven-proof serving dish. Pour over the custard and chill for 2
hours until set.
Heat caster sugar in a pan with a squeeze on lemon juice and 2 tbsp
water. Split the vanilla pod and scrape out the seeds. Add half the
seeds to a pan and reduce to a syrup. Cool. Add blackberries and turn
in the syrup to coat them, (save the ones remainding for the sauce).
Spread over the top of the cutard in the dish.
In a perfectly clean bowl whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt,
until they form stiff peaks. Whisk in half the sugar and bring back
to stiff glossy peaks. Whisk in two more tbsp sugar and then fold in
the cornflour and lemon juice.
Pile meringue on top of the blackberries in rough peaks - do not
attempt to spread the meringue but make sure the blackberries are
completely covered.
Scatter meringue with the remaining sugar and the flaked almonds.
Bake in the pre-heated oven for 25-30 minutes, until meringue is
crisp with light golden peaks.
Serve with blackberry and vanilla sauce.
Blackberry sauce:
Heat the sugar and seeds together with a splash of cold water until
the sugar has dissolved to make a vanilla syrup, cool.
Toss the blackberries in the syrup and press through a medium sieve to
remove the seeds and to give a thick and very fresh flavoured sauce.
