Recipe: Lemon & Ginger Posset with Strawberry & Cherry Coulis

One of the easiest desserts you could resort to is lemon posset, but I’ve given this one a better kick with some ginger. Topped with a Strawberry & Cherry Coulis…This is one quick and easy dessert guaranteed to delight

• For about 1-3, you will need:
  – 1/2 cup of sugar
  – 1 cup of cream
  – Juice and zest of 1/2 a lemon
  – 10 cherries
  – About 8 strawberries
  – Cranberry juice (just enough to cover the fruit in a bowl)
  – Lime juice (2tbsp)
  – Pinch of black pepper
  – Freshly grated ginger

  Let’s begin!

  Place the cherries and strawberries in a bowl along with the lime and cranberries juices and black pepper. Trust me, this creates a spicy sweet flavour that compliments the end result. Pop this in the fridge.
  Place the cream and sugar in a pan on medium heat and bring it to a simmer for 3-4 minutes then strain into a bowl. Add the lemon juice and grated ginger, whisk and then place into 3 bowls/ramekins. Leave these in freezer for 3 hours. Posset done!

  For the cherry & strawberry coulis, pop the fruit into a blender with about 2tbsp of the marinade juices. Give it a quick blitz for a few seconds then strain the mixture through a sieve. Bring out your posset from the freezer and top with your coulis. Grab that spoon and tuck in!

  Sweet! Kick! Zing!
