ETON MESS

This recipe uses bottled fresh pomegranate juice to encourage the strawberries to ooze out their fragrant summery juices. If you're making this with out-of-season strawberries, then you stand a chance of using freshly squeezed pomegranate juice, in which case, sprinkle some seeds on top of this voluptuous mound of meringue and berryspiked cream.

Ingredients

  • Express Recipe
  • Gluten Free
  • Nigella Recipe
  • Vegetarian
  • 500g strawberries
  • 2 teaspoons caster or vanilla sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pomegranate juice
  • 500ml whipping cream
  • 4 x small meringue nests from a packet

Method

  1. Hull and chop the strawberries and put into a bowl. Add the sugar and pomegranate juice and leave to macerate while you whip the cream.
  2. Whip the cream in a large bowl until thick but still soft.
  3. Roughly crumble in 4 meringues nests - you will need chunks for texture, as well as a little fine dust.
  4. Take out a ladleful, or about 100g, of the chopped strawberries, and fold the meringued cream and rest of the fruit mixture together.
  5. Arrange on four serving plates or glasses, or in a mound, and top each one with some of the remaining macerated strawberries.
