Original recipe of the week: Lemon and rose fool
If you are like us and you love a bit of something sweet after a big savoury meal, but don’t want to pile on the pounds, you’ll love this recipe. Inspired by the new Bircher muesli yoghurt mixes that are all the rage at the moment, this recipe will really give you that sweet kick. You can tone down the sugar if you like, or if you prefer your dessert to taste fruitier, then simply add a handful of fresh berries opposed to dried fruit for an extra fresh zing.
