Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Lemon posset with hot spiced fruits

    • veronicafrance on June 01, 2012

      Lovely! I topped them with hot cherry compote. I only left them to set for about 3 hours, so they melted a bit under the hot cherries. But they did set, and they were delicious. Effort versus results: 10/10 Note: I made half quantities, which allegedly serves three. This gave me six small glasses, which with the fruit and some crisp biscuits would make a nice light dessert for four or even six.
