A delectable real food take on a favourite French dessert.
This pudding is divine and takes only minutes to make. Jo, the talented photographer who took the images for my book Real Food Everyday, named this dessert her favourite of the entire book. When we shoot the food we also eat our way through the recipes. Yes, it is as much fun as it sounds!

Stir in 3 tablespoons of chia seeds and pour into a sealed container. Place in the fridge to set for three hours.
