How to Make Nigella Lawson Turkish Delight Syllabub

  1. In a large bowl, gently whip the double cream until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to overwhip.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the rosewater, icing sugar, and lemon juice until the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Gently fold the rosewater mixture into the whipped cream, ensuring not to deflate the cream.
  4. Crumble the Turkish delight into small pieces.
  5. Gently fold the crumbled Turkish delight into the cream mixture.
  6. Spoon the syllabub into individual serving glasses or a larger bowl.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the syllabub to set slightly before serving.
  8. Garnish with extra crumbled Turkish delight and a sprinkle of rose petals, if desired.
