Cream of Wheat with Fruit

• 25 oz/750 g water
• 1 lb/500 g fruit (sour cherries or raspberries, strawberries, wild strawberries, gooseberries)
• 3-4 tablespoons sugar
• 5 oz/150 g cream of wheat
• vanilla

Boil the fruits. After coming to a few boils, remove from heat, let cool, and then sift fruits and liquid. Boil, adding sugar, vanilla and cream of wheat, adding this last a little at a time, like a rain, stirring continuously until it thickens like a cream. Remove from heat and beat until foamy. Then pour into a charlotte or pudding mold which was previously moistened with cold water. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Before serving, turn onto a plate and garnish with some raw fruit.
