It’s not a British summer without a generous serving (or two) of a creamy, fruity, meringue dessert. While pavlova is often my go-to, I also like the more relaxed, throw-together nature of Eton mess. I’ve given it my own spin here by using a brown sugar meringue, which adds a gorgeous, caramel flavour and makes all the difference compared with shop-bought shells. Macerate the peaches in sumac and lime, whip up some cream and yoghurt, then pile it all high on a pretty platter for a perfect pud for a crowd.
