Cherry Idiot Dessert – Teaspoon of Spice

Get pleasure from summer season cherries in cream and yogurt! 

Years in the past, I noticed this easy Blueberry Idiot recipe from Nigel Slater’s Ripe featured on Meals 52 – I used to be within the kitchen minutes later making it. It was passed by the subsequent day so in fact, I wanted to make it once more, this time with cherries – my absolute favourite summer season fruit and some of my diversifications.

A “idiot” is a conventional English dessert that sometimes mixes cooked fruit in some sort of cream or custard.

And, sure, my recipe requires heavy cream (although I did decrease the quantity from the unique recipe whereas upping the quantity of Greek yogurt) however generally you do need to splurge and on this case, a little bit little bit of pretty, full-on fats cream goes a great distance.

It’s a easy dessert that can also be elegant on the similar time (particularly in case you get fancy and serve it in wine glasses!) You should use nearly any summer season fruit you’d like.
