Major foul

Sort and wash the berries, then bring to a boil with 1/2 cup of water and the sugar. Due to their higher acidity, the gooseberries require 125g of sugar. Simmer the berries over very low heat for 10-15 minutes until soft, then strain through a sieve. Let the fruit purée cool. Whip the cream until semi-stiff. Add the 60g of sugar and the vanilla sugar and continue beating until the sugar has dissolved. Fold the whipped cream into the fruit purée. Let the cream chill for a few hours before serving.
