• 2 tbsp (30 ml) water
• 1 tbsp (11 g) chia seeds

Method

1. Simmer the frozen berries with the sweetener and water in a 6-inch (15cm) saucepan over medium heat for 6 minutes, until syrupy, crushing half of them. Frozen berries collapse into syrup faster than fresh.
2. Take the pan off the heat, stir in the chia and let it stand 3 minutes, until glossy and spoonable.
3. Whip the cottage cheese with the vanilla and lemon zest for a minute, until pale. Spoon the warm compote over and top with the walnuts, toasted in a dry pan.
