Summer fruits with elderflower sabayon

Summer berries and elderflower sabayon post

Light, delicious and exquisitely creamy, this delicious summer fruits with elderflower sabayon is a gorgeous weekend dessert. 

Serves 4

Cooking time: 3-5 mins
 
What You’ll Need:

  • 600g mixed trimmed summer fruits (hull the strawberries)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 100ml champagne (or sparkling wine)
  • 50 ml elderflower cordial
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar

What To Do:

  • Make sure you have 4 nice glasses or bowls to serve the fruits and sabayon in. Then fill a saucepan half-full with water over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
  • Place all the sabayon ingredients in a medium stainless steel bowl and whisk until well combined. Place the bowl over the saucepan and continue to whisk until the sauce is thick and doubled in volume, 3 to 5 minutes. The sauce should be thick enough so that it will support a ribbon of sauce trailing off the end of the spoon when lifted.
  • Pop the fruit into the glasses and spoon some of the sabayon over each one and serve.
  • Optional: Glaze the top with a blow torch for a nice finish.
