Stage 1 - 5 min.
Mix 200 g soft fruit of your choice (raspberries, blackcurrants, bluberries, raspberries, currants...). Aim to include at least 3 kinds. You can use frozen fruit.
Wash the fruit quickly under running cold water, drain and dry them on a cloth.
If these fruits are not treated or come from your garden, just rinse very briefly, they will taste better.

Stage 2 - 3 min.
Put 50 g caster sugar in a non-stick frying pan on high heat, tip fruit on top, stir gently.
Stage 3 - 2 min.
Barely cook the fruit (one or two minutes), just so that sugar melts, mixes with the juice, and coats the fruit.
Remove from heat and set aside.

Stage 4 - 30 min.

Stage 5 - 3 min.
Fill a dessert plate or a small dish with a layer of semi-cooked fruits.
Stage 6 - 2 min.

You can, if you want, just before serving, "burn" sabayon with a blow lamp, which adds an excellent hint of caramel flavour, but it's not essential.
