Steps

1
Done

Measure half of the berries into the saucepan, and heat gently for a few minutes until the fruit is soft.

2
Done

Put the cornflour and cassis (liqueur) into a small bowl and mix until smooth. Add a little of the hot berry juices to the cornflour mix, stir, and pour back into the saucepan. Heat, stirring until thickened then press through a sieve into a bowl, leaving just the pips behind in the sieve. Set the berry puree aside to cool.

3
Done

Put a baking tray in the oven and preheat the oven to 190c (170c fan, gas 5) butter the ramekins.

4
Done

Put the egg whites into large bowl and beat with electric whisk on high speed until stiff but not dry. Add 100g (3 ½) of the sugar a teaspoon at a time and keep beating until stiff and shiny. Stir a little of the whites into the berry puree, then carefully fold in the remainder until evenly combined.

Done

5) Spoon the mixture into the prepared ramekins, level the tops, then run your finger inside the rim of each dish – this will ensure the soufflés rise evening. Place the ramekins on the hot baking tray and bake for 8-10 minutes until the soufflés are well risen and light golden on top.

6
Done

Meanwhile make the compote: heat the remaining berries and sugar in a pan over a low heat stirring until the sugar has dissolved and the fruit has defrosted. Check for sharpness and add a little more sugar if the fruit does not taste sweet enough.

7
Done

Serve the soufflés as soon as the come out of the oven, with the warm compote.
