• For the nougat
• 1 cup red wine
• 400 grs Sugar
• 4 egg whites
• For the sauce
• 1 cup red wine
• 1 1/2 cup frozen berry mix
• 50 grs Sugar
• 2 pieces of orange peel
• 1 cinnamon stick
• 1 tsp cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon of water
• To decorate
• Minced almond praline (See recipe)

Directions

1. 1

   First make the praline, let it cool and chop. Book.

2. 2

   Then, make a hair syrup with 300 g of sugar and a cup of red wine. To do this, put the sugar in the pot and pour the wine over it and only by shaking the pot can it humidify all the sugar and put it on low heat until it boils, raise the heat to medium and let it pass for about 4 to 5 minutes lower the heat again to the minimum and test if it is at the point of hair.

3. 3

   With a spoon, take a portion of the syrup and let it fall from above, you will see that when it falls it does not fall suddenly and forms a fine trail like a hair. Turn off the heat and set aside.

4. 4

   With a spoon, take a portion of the syrup and let it fall from above, you will see that when it falls it does not fall suddenly and forms a fine trail like a hair. Turn off the heat and set aside.

5. 5

   While the syrup cools down a little, start beating the 4 egg whites for a few minutes at medium speed until they turn white and frothy, now add the remaining 100 g of sugar and beat until a firm meringue is formed. It's time to start adding, without stopping whipping, the reserved syrup.

6. 6

   Add the syrup little by little while continuing to whisk until everything is integrated. Keep beating until when you touch the bowl where you are making the nougat it no longer feels hot, its temperature has dropped. The nougat is ready. Book.

7. 7

   It's time to prepare the sauce, in a small pot, mix the wine with the sugar, add the orange peel and the cinnamon stick and simmer, stirring from time to time until it boils for a few minutes and the smell of its vapor is sweet, no longer smelling of alcohol. After that, remove the flavorings, peel and cinnamon.

8. 8

   Without turning off the heat, add whatever red fruits you have, I added them directly from the freezer, wait for it to boil again, always at low heat. Let it boil for 5 min.

9. 9

   In the meantime, dilute the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water, and add it to the pot of sauce, mix well and soon it will wait. Cook 3 more minutes and turn off the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

10. 10

    And it was time to portion and make a nice dessert (besides being delicious). In a glass or bowl, hopefully transparent, put a good portion of sauce on the bottom, then a layer of nougat to taste, it can be with the help of a pastry bag, and finally chopped praline. Garnish by sprinkling a little cinnamon powder and a couple of fresh mint leaves. And serve, you'll show off and everyone will enjoy this treat!
