Recipe Ingredients

Combine honey, essence and cinnamon stick in a SPAR Good Living 20cm frying pan, and gently heat until liquid and bubbling.
Add the berries and poach gently for 5-8 minutes over steady heat, shaking the pan occasionally to keep the cooking even. Remove the cinnamon stick.
Warm the brandy in a jug in a microwave oven (+-15 seconds) and ignite with a match and immediately pour onto the hot dessert as it flames. Baste the food with the flaming juices until the flames die - serve at once.

Stand back when flaming. Never pour alcohol straight from the bottle onto a very hot food as the alcohol in the bottle can catch fire.
Do not substitute brandy with wine as it will not burn due to the lower alcohol content.
The cooked berries may be poured into SPAR Freshline meringue cases. Serve immediately.
When berries are out-of-season, SPAR canned peach slices are a successful substitute.
