Nigel Slater's blueberries clafoutis.

Nigel Slater's summer recipes | Life and style | The Observer:
Blueberry batter pudding
Batter pudding, the French 'Clafoutis', is the only hot pudding that is really acceptable in high summer. Possibly because, like quiche, it is traditionally served warm rather than hot.
Though cherries are more traditional, I find this pudding works exceptionally well with blueberries, their tart purple-blueness seeping into the quivering egg custard.
serves 4-6
eggs - 4
plain flour - 75g
caster sugar - 80-90g
single cream - 250ml
full cream milk - 225ml
blueberries - 300g
icing sugar and cream to serve

You will also need an ovenproof dish about 25cm in diameter and a little butter for greasing it with.
- Butter the dish.
- Whizz all the ingredients except the fruit in a blender or food processor, or beat them all together with a hand-held whisk.
- Tip the fruit into the dish, pour over the batter,then bake in a preheated oven at 200 c/gas 6 for about 40 minutes, till the batter is lightly risen, golden and lightly firm to the touch.
- Dust with icing sugar before serving.
