Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 1 min.

Crunchy blackcurrant and mascarpone cream verrine

Blackcurrant coulis

Soak 1 teaspoon gelatin in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes to soften.

Stage 2 - 5 min.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, pour in 1 cup Blackcurrant coulis and ²⁄₃ cup caster sugar.

Mix well, and bring to approx. 60°C (140°F), no need to boil.

Stage 3 - 1 min.

Once the coulis is hot, turn off the heat and add the gelatine, pressing it into your hand.

Stage 4 - 1 min.

Stir to dissolve completely.

Place in the fridge to stand-by.

Stage 5 - 3 min.

Chantilly-mascarpone cream

In a small bowl, pour cold ²⁄₃ cup liquid cream and ½ cup Mascarpone, then 2 tablespoons brown sugar.

Stage 6 - 3 min.

Whip the mixture until it resembles whipped cream, which is very quick thanks to the mascarpone.

Stage 7 - 3 min.

Assembly

Check that the blackcurrant coulis has thickened, it should have the texture of a jam. If it hasn't, put it back in the fridge and wait.

If it's ready, start assembling by placing a layer of cream in each verrine (a piping bag is ideal for this).

Stage 8 - 3 min.

Pour a layer of blackcurrant coulis, thickened by chilling.

Stage 9 - 4 min.

Finish with a layer of granola.

Stage 10

Put back in the fridge if not serving immediately.

Remarks

You can swap the layers of blackcurrant and crème, but it's better to leave the granola on top.

You can adapt this recipe by replacing the blackcurrant coulis with another fruit, if possible a slightly tart one, such as raspberry, strawberry, apricot, etc.

Keeping

To be enjoyed during the day.
