Ingredients

Serve with fresh raspberries or poached peaches.

  • 10 stalks of lavender (2 tsp buds if already off the stalk)
  • 300ml (½ pint) double or regular cream
  • 40g (1½ oz) honey
  • 1 sheet of gelatine
  • Fresh raspberries or poached peaches, to serve

Method

  1. Pick the flower buds from the lavender stalks and place in a saucepan with the cream and honey. Place on a medium heat and bring just to the boil, then remove from the heat and allow to infuse for 10 minutes.
  2. Soften the gelatine in cold water for 3 minutes.
  3. Rewarm the cream mixture and drop in the squeezed-out gelatine sheet, stir to dissolve, then sieve and divide into four serving glasses or little pots. Leave in the fridge to set for about 3 or 4 hours.
  4. Serve with fresh raspberries or poached peaches.
