Method

  1. Put the lemon curd and yogurt into a bowl. Fold together for a rippled effect. Divide the mixture between four glasses and chill.
  2. Mix raspberries and icing sugar together and gently crush, then spoon with their juices over the chilled mix and serve.
Try

Make it with blackberries

Line the bottom of a dish with ready-made sponges. Crush 200g blackberries with 2 tbsp icing sugar and spread on top. Spoon the lemon curd and yogurt mixture over the top, then scatter with toasted almonds.

Tip

Use raspberries at room temperature when their full flavour is at its best.

Taste team comment

'The crunchy shortbread contrasted well with the lemony yogurt and raspberries in the Lemon curd & yogurt fool, and was really good for dipping. This would make a great emergency dessert.'

    Very refreshing dessert at lunch time from the hot and sunny Singapore. Well received. Also nice served with sponge fingers instead of shortbread.

    A really lovely light pud after a heavy main course. It will certainly be a favourite with this family.

    Very tasty and simple to prepare. We used brandy snaps instead of shortbread and they worked really well. A lovely quick dessert, if you prefer it less sweet I would reduce the sugar which was added to the raspberries.

    This was light and impressive. To make it a bit more special for a dinner party i would use slightly less lemon curd or more yogurt and I would also add some lemon zest and a dash of limoncello. I will definately make this again.

    Fabulous light dessert for after a meal. I have served this at a dinner party and it's gone down a storm. Definitely good with the shortbread.
