4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
450 grams Plums; (1lb)
1 Lemon
1 Piece cinnamon stick
3 tablespoons Wild flower honey; (3 to 4)
3 Leaves gelatine
150 millilitres Double cream; (1/4 pint)
2 larges Egg whites
Chopped pistachios

Directions

Use dessert plums for this and preferably a dark variety such as Czar which will give a pretty pink colour to the mousse.

Half and stone the plums. Cook with the juice from the lemon, 3 tbsp of water and a small piece of cinnamon stick until very soft. Remove cinnamon.

PurŠe e in a blender and sieve into a clean pan. Add the honey and stir until dissolved.

Soften the gelatine in cold water. Squeeze dry. Add to the fruit purŠe and stir until melted. Pour into a wide bowl and chill until on the point of setting.

Whisk cream to a soft flopping consistency and fold into the purŠe. Whisk egg whites in a clean bowl until stiff. Fold as much into the mixture as you think to make a light mousse.

Pour into pretty glasses and top with chopped pistachios and a sprig of mint.
