This berry pudding is light and delicious – and it’s easy to make too!

If you’re looking for a summer treat then this berry fruit ripple with chocolate from nutritionist Jacqueline Birtwisle might just fit the bill.

Ingredients

Juice of one lime
75g fresh raspberries or strawberries
75g fresh blueberries
50g caster sugar
2 x 250g tubs of quark (soft cheese)
200g half fat creme fraiche
4 tsp grated dark chocolate
(optional for decoration)

How to make it

1. Place the lime juice, berries and caster sugar in a pan. Heat gently, stirring occasionally until the blueberries pop and release their juices. Leave to cool.

2. Reserve a couple of spoonfuls to decorate, and sieve the remaining fruit mix or blend to a puree.

3. Mix together the quark and the berry puree in a bowl. Tip the creme fraiche on top and stir only once or twice to create a ripple through the berry mixture.

4. Put into individual bowls and chill until ready to serve.

5. Spoon the remaining berries over each bowl, just before serving, and decorate with a teaspoon of grated dark chocolate.
