Place over the heat and cook until the custard has thickened, do not over heat.
Remove from the heat and cool.
Place the fruit in a liquidiser and puree lightly but do not overdo so that the fruit is a pure liquid, it should still have a bit of texture.
When the custard is cool stir in the yogurt and half of the pureed fruit.
Using 4 glass dishes (or glasses) place a layer of the fruit custard in the bottom, then swirl nearly half of the remaining fruit.
Add another layer of the custard then the rest of the fruit leaving about a little to finish.
Beat the 200mls of cream until thick and pipe or place swirls on top of the top fruit layer.
Finish by dribbling a little fruit puree on the top, a sprig of mint and a short bread biscuit or wafer.
