Peaches are a beautiful way to celebrate the long, warm days of summer, and this peach recipe from Kevin Mangeolles is a spectacular dessert showcasing the fruit's flavours. Poached peaches are combined with peach sorbet, while lemon cream and homemade vanilla lemonade add brightness to this marvellous dish.
Boil some water, then gently pierce the skin of the peaches. Put the peaches into the water for approximately 30 seconds. Put into cold water then peel the skins from them. Put the sugar, vanilla and water in a pan and bring to the boil
Add the peaches, cover with greaseproof paper and simmer for approximately 15 minutes. Leave to cool in the syrup, and when ready to serve cut the peaches in half and take out the stones

For the peach sorbet, take 200ml of the peach poaching syrup and mix with all the ingredients. Put in an ice cream machine and churn. Once frozen, turn into a container and freeze
To make the vanilla lemonade, boil the water, zest and vanilla. Pour over the hot liquid and stir. Pour into a bottle, adding the vanilla pod and a few pieces of zest to the bottle. Put in the fridge overnight
For the lemon cream, boil the lemon juice and vanilla. Mix together the sugar, flour and yolks. Pour the lemon cream on to the sugar mix and pour back into the pan. Cook over a low heat until thick allow to cool in a mixing bowl
To serve, put some of the cream in the bottom of the bowl and place ½ a peach in the centre with a ball of the sorbet on top. Slice some crystallised ginger and place around the peach
Given the name of Chef Kevin Mangeolles’s restaurant – The Neptune, in Hunstanton, Norfolk – you’d be right to suspect that the chef has an affinity for quarry caught with net or hook.
