The Good Bit
- Put the fruit, 1 tablespoon caster sugar and 2 tablespoons of rum in the bowl and mix well and leave whilst you do the next bit.
- Heat 100g caster sugar in the frying pan along with the lemon juice and a splash of water, keep stirring until the sugar dissolves then heat rapidly without stirring until it turns golden.
- Whilst that is boiling rapidly, mix the mascarpone with 2 tablespoons of rum, the icing sugar and lemon zest.
- now fill the bottom of 4 dishes with the biscuits, spoon over the fruit, then top with the cream and finally drizzle over the caramel sauce, allow this to set for a minute then serve.
