Method:

1. Make the coulis by warming the blackcurrants with the sugar and a dash of water until they release their juices, around 5-10 minutes. You can use the coulis as it is, or pass it through a sieve for a finer coulis.
 
2. Whisk the cream lightly, fold in the plain yoghurt, Ribena and crushed meringues, then fold in the blackcurrant coulis and stir it a few times so the coulis is not completely incorporated.

3. Pour into a lined loaf tin or tray and freeze overnight. Enjoy as a perfect summer pudding or afternoon treat.
