Step by step recipe
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.
Remove from heat and set aside.
Stage 4 - 30 min.
At the last minute, make 300 ml sabayon.
Stage 5 - 3 min.
Fill a dessert plate or a small dish with a layer of semi-cooked fruits.
Stage 6 - 2 min.
Cover with sabayon.
Stage 7 - 1 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.
Remarks
If you're not familiar with sabayon, you can replace it with a real custard (crème anglaise).
