Strawberry fool
12 February 2010

Serves: 3

Preparation time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 250g strawberries
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 50g icing sugar
  • 150ml double cream
  • 100ml fromage frais

Instructions

Wash and remove the stalks from the strawberries. Place in a large bowl, add the lemon juice and sieve over the icing sugar.
Crush with a potato masher so the strawberries are wonderfully juicy but still fairly chunky.

In a separate bowl, whisk the cream until it forms firm peaks. Stir in the fromage frais and then fold in the crushed strawberries.

Spoon into 3 individual glasses or 1 large dish. Chill for about 2 hours before serving.

For added kick, use strawberry liqueur or creme de cassis
