How To Make mixed berry sundae with raspberry cream

  • Step 1
    Put 2 cups of water in a saucepan and add the granulated sugar. Heat over low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Set aside to cool, then stir in the fresh lemon juice.
  • Step 2
    Put the sugar syrup and mixed berries in a large food processor fitted with the metal blade and whizz for 20 seconds, or until smooth. Press the puree through a sieve in batches and pour into a wide, deep plastic container.
  • Step 3
    Freeze the mixture for 1 to 2 hours, or until ice crystals have formed around the edges.
  • Step 4
    Using an immersion blender (or regular blender), whizz the mixture to break up the ice crystals. Return to the freezer and repeat this process for 4 to 5 hours until the berry mixture resembles soft snow.
  • Step 5
    To Make the Raspberry Cream: Whizz the raspberries and confectioners' sugar in a food processor for 10 seconds, or until smooth. Press through a fine sieve. Lightly whip the cream until it just holds its shape. Fold the cream into the raspberry puree.
  • Step 6
    Serve the frozen sundae mixture in chilled glasses with a spoonful of raspberry cream and some fresh berries.
