Buy very ripe peaches with a sweet aroma for this dessert. Frozen raspberries make an excellent sauce, or you can use a mixture of other soft red fruits. Serve with light almond biscuits if desired. Preparation time : 15 minutes, Chilling Time : 1 hour, Cooking time : 5 minutes, Calories per serving: 75

1. To make the sauce, put all the frozen raspberries in a covered pan, along with the sugar. Warm over a low heat for 5 minutes until the raspberries have thawed, and the sugar has dissolved in their juice.

2. Press the raspberry mixture through a sieve into a bowl and stir in the optional liqueur. Leave the sauce in the refrigerator to chill.

3. Put the peaches in a large pan, pour over boiling water and leave them to stand for 1 minute, then drain and allow them to cool.

4. Peel off their skins, and sprinkle with lemon juice to stop them discolouring.

5. Arrange the peaches on serving plates, whole or sliced without the stone, and pour the sauce around them. Garnish with the fresh mint sprigs and serve.
