Whisk continuously until the mixture thickens and is pale. Remove from heat and continue to whisk for a couple of minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. Whisk in the mascarpone until smooth then whisk in the cream for a couple of minutes – the mixture should be like thick custard. Spoon the blackcurrant into 4 bowls and top with the sabayon. Chill until ready to serve.Lemon and pistachio crumble 50g plain flour 40g butter, at room temperature 50g castor sugar Zest 1 lemon 50g shelled pistachios, coarsely chopped Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set oven to 180oc. Rub the flour and butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in the pistachios and lemon zest well. Spread onto the baking tray and bake for about 15 minutes or until firm and golden.
