Berry mousse

HINT: You may also use strawberries or blueberries in this recipe. Make sure the gelatine is well dissolved in the water before adding to the rest of the ingredients or the mousse could become lumpy and/or not set properly

300 g fresh or frozen raspberries, thawed
400 g low-fat strawberry yogurt
ΒΌ cup icing sugar
2 tablespoons hot water
3 teaspoons gelatine
2 egg whites

Crush raspberries lightly with a fork and combine in a mixing bowl with yogurt and sifted icing sugar. Put the water in a small bowl and sprinkle gelatine over it. Stand the bowl in another bowl of very hot water, and let the gelatine soften for a few minutes then whisk with a fork to dissolve. Using electric beaters, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Stir gelatine into yogurt mixture, then add egg whites and fold gently together until well combined, but take care not to lose the volume from the beaten egg whites. Spoon into individual serving dishes, slightly larger than 1 cup capacity each, and refrigerate for about 4 hours or until set.
