How to Make Peaches Velvetene

  1. Strain 400g fresh peaches, reserving the juice.
  2. Gently place the strained peaches into your chosen serving dish(es): a large bowl or individual parfait glasses.
  3. Measure the reserved peach juice. If you have 100ml, dissolve a 9g packet of jelly in 150ml of hot water, stirring until completely dissolved. Adjust water quantity according to your jelly packet instructions.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the dissolved jelly/juice mixture with 250g plain Greek yogurt until smooth.
  5. Gently pour the yogurt mixture over the prepared peaches in the serving dish(es).
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the jelly is set.
  7. While the dessert chills, blend 100g ricotta cheese with 4 tablespoons (60ml) of the reserved peach juice in a food processor until completely smooth and creamy. For extra indulgence, add 1 tablespoon (15ml) Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur.
  8. Once the jelly is set, dollop or pipe the ricotta cream onto the top of the Peaches Velvetene for a beautiful and delicious finish.
