Make this dessert in early summer when gooseberries come into season
~ one of the most lovely of our soft fruits. Gooseberries make
gorgeous pies and crumbles too - but this recipe, for all its
simplicity, brings out the best in them.
Dissolve the sugar in the water with the vanilla stick, stirring, and
boil for 5 minutes until it is syrupy. Add the gooseberries to the
syrup and poach very gently for 10 minutes. Cool. Serve chilled, in
two glass dishes, with crme fraiche or Greek yogurt.
