Recipe

Wash nectarines, dry carefully, remove stones and chop into small pieces.
 
Melt butter and vanilla sugar together in a saucepan, then add peaches and quickly brown. 
 
Beat eggs in a heatproof bowl, along with sugar and wine.
 
Place bowl in a bain-marie at around 70°C, or over a pan of boiling water and cook for 10 or 15 minutes, stirring constantly for a thick, creamy mousse, which sticks to the spoon slightly before falling away. 

Share fruit out amongst dessert bowls, then cover with warm sabayon.  Sprinkle with almonds and serve immediately.
