Method

Take 4 sheets of foil and fold each one in half. Halve the peaches or nectarines, remove the stones, then slice into wedges. Divide among the foil sheets along with the blackberries. Scatter with sugar and drizzle with brandy or rum, then close the foil to form parcels.
Put the parcels in the fire’s embers or barbecue coals (or in an oven heated to 160°C/fan140°C/gas 3). Cook for 20-25 minutes until soft and bubbling. Serve with cream and biscuits to dunk or crumble over.
