Method

  1. 1

    Bring the berries, cherries with their juice, cherry juice and sugar to the boil.

  2. 2

    Slake the cornflour with a little cold juice, stir in, cook for 1 minute until it thickens.

  3. 3

    Fill into bowls, chill. Make the vanilla sauce from pudding powder and milk as the packet says, thinner than pudding.
