Ollie Moore adds a caramel depth to plain natural yoghurt by slowly cooking it in a water bath, which results in a thickened texture and a flavour similar to butterscotch. Served simply with a few burnished berries, it makes a simple yet healthy dessert, or perhaps a delicious alternative at breakfast.
