INGREDIENTS
150 |
ml |
Double cream; (1/4 pint) |
1 |
ts |
Icing sugar |
|
|
Seeds from 1/2 vanilla pod |
575 |
g |
Blackcurrants; (1 1/4lb) |
225 |
|
Ig; (8oz) caster sugar |
|
|
Few sweet cicely leaves |
150 |
ml |

INSTRUCTIONS
Whisk the cream with the icing sugar and vanilla seeds until firm but
not too stiff and dry. Chill well.
Strip the blackcurrants from the stems and cook in a shallow pan with
the sugar and 2 tbsp water until the currants have burst. Add chopped
cicely and blend. Press through a plastic sieve to remove any seeds
and bits of skin. Chill well.
Make the custard and chill well.
Layer alternative spoonfuls of custard, cream and puree into each of 4
serving glasses and using the point of a knife, swirl them into each
other to produce a marbled effect. Top with a sprig of herb and serve.
Tips: Make some blackcurrantspuree and keep in the freezer for
winter. A little added to a dressing will liven up a winter salad
whilst de-glazing the roasting tin with a little after cooking game
or pork makes an interesting addition to the sauce.
