This Greek dessert features Tart green gooseberries 6 oz Caster sugar, Elderflower blossoms* 225 g Greek strained yoghurt. It delivers sweet, indulgent flavor. A wonderful way to end any meal, especially on special occasions. Simple to make with ingredients you likely already have on hand, this is a recipe you will come back to again and again.Ingredients
Directions
-
Put the gooseberries into a heavy-based saucepan or casserole.
-
The fruit should be still damp from rinsing under the tap but there is no point in spending time topping and tailing it as it is going to be sieved.
-
Add the florets of elder blossom, stripped from their stalks, and bury them among the fruit.
-
Cover tightly and
-
cook in a low oven until the fruit is tender and pulpy - I
-
allow 1 hour or so at 275-300 F (140-150 C) gas mark 1 or 2.
-
Or cook over a very gentle flame if preferred.
-
Add the sugar and stir until it no longer feels gritty.
-
Then rub the fruit and every drop of its sugary juices through a sieve to
-
make a perfectly smooth seeless puree.
-
As soon as it is cold, spoon the pale aromatic puree into a chilled loaf tin, cover it and freeze.
-
About an hour later, when the ice is firm around the edges but still soft in the centre,
-
beat it or whizz it in a food-processor until mushy.
-
Gently fold in the yoghurt, cover and freeze until solid all the way through.
-
Then turn out the ice-
-
cream ,
-
beat it again to break up any ice crystals and
-
transfer it to 8 petit pots de chocolat.
-
Cover and
-
freeze until about 1 hour before serving, when the ice-
-
cream should be placed in the fridge to "ripen" it.
-
Amaretti biscuits go very well with this.
