Makes 12

Ingredients
2 medium egg whites
1 tsp lemon juice
125g golden caster sugar
12 mini all-butter sweet tart cases
80g M&S Sicilian lemon curd

Heat the oven to 120°C/100°C fan/gas mark 1. Line a flat baking sheet with baking paper. In a spotlessly clean stand mixer, whisk the egg whites and lemon juice until soft peaks form, then add the sugar a tablespoon at a time, whisking continuously, until thick and glossy – about 4-6 minutes.

Spoon into a piping bag fitted with a small star nozzle and pipe little meringue kisses onto the baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, until crisp.

Fill the tart cases with a spoonful of lemon curd. Top with a raspberry or two and a couple of meringue kisses, and serve.

Serves 10

Ingredients
50g flaked almonds
200g blueberries
200g raspberries
100g plain flour
200g ground almonds
2 tsp baking powder
A pinch of salt
4 medium eggs
120g golden caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
100ml whole milk
1 tbsp olive oil

To serve
200g strawberries
400ml double cream, whipped to soft peaks

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6 and grease and line a round 20cm cake tin. Scatter half the flaked almonds over the base, followed by the berries and the rest of the flaked almonds.

Sift the flour, ground almonds, baking powder and salt into a bowl and stir to combine. In a stand mixer, on a medium speed, whisk the eggs and sugar for 2-3 minutes, until frothy. Whisk in the milk, vanilla essence and olive oil. Fold the frothy egg mixture into the dry ingredients to make a thick, but wet batter. Pour this over the berries and bake for 35-40 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean.

While the cake is baking, remove the green leaves from the strawberries and slice. Toss with the caster sugar to macerate (bring out the juices and concentrate the flavour) and whip the cream until it forms soft peaks.

Once the cake is baked, remove from the oven and cool in its tin on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove from the tin and leave to cool, then serve with the strawberries and whipped cream.

2 tbsp ricotta
1 tbsp olive oil

Toast the bread until golden, then drizzle with a little olive oil and spread with the ricotta.

Cook until collapsing, then pile onto the ricotta toast and top with basil and freshly ground black pepper.
