Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1 1/4 c Cream, heavy

-amount of soft fruit)
Broken meringue

Whip the cream. Chop fruit coarsely, but don't crush. Break
meringue into large crumbs. Mix everything shortly before serving
and pile into glasses.

NOTES:

* Simple dessert for failed Pavlova attempts -- My mother used to
make the banana variety of this when she cooked her meringues a
little too long or too hot. I've no idea of its origins.

* I can never make up my mind whether I prefer the strawberry or the
banana version. Peach should be pretty good too, though I've never
tried it.

* This is a neat way of saving a Pavlova attempt when the meringue
part fails: it produces a delicious desert and no-one need ever
know...

: Difficulty: very simple.
: Time: 10 minutes presuming you have the meringue available.
: Precision: No need to measure.
