Ingredients |
4 lemon shortbread biscuits
80ml sweet vermouth ( I used Madeira)
250ml double cream
4 tbsp icing sugar
6 tbsp lemon curd
2 tbsp flaked almonds, toasted
2 sprigs fresh mint (optional)
|
Adapted from James Martin
From James's original recipe, I have reduced the Vermouth from 110 ml to
80, and the lemon curd from 8 tbsp to 6. This reduces the amount of
sugar and acidity roughly by the same amount. |
-
Crumble a biscuit into the
bottom of each of four sundae or dessert glasses. Drizzle over one
tablespoon of sweet vermouth into each glass.
-
Pour the cream into a bowl and
add the icing sugar. Whisk the cream until soft peaks
form. Fold in the remaining sweet vermouth. Add the lemon
curd and lightly fold through, leaving a marbled effect.
-
Spoon the cream mixture into
each of the glasses. Top with the flaked almonds and a
sprig of mint. Serve chilled.
