I was lucky enough to be given 2lbs of gooseberries by a friend, who grows them in her garden.

I made a ginormous crumble with them, and very nice it was too. Shame it’s a) such a short season, and b) you rarely see them in shops.

If you’re cooking gooseberries, don’t forget to put a slug of elderflower cordial in with the fruit … it really is a marriage made in heaven.
