In a few words, this dessert is made of a coconut-flavoured mascarpone cream topped with freshly cut strawberries and surrounded with strawberry coulis. Recipe and photo from my friend Béa . Read more . My family loves it! Ingredients:
for the cream |
7 oz mascarpone cheese |
2 tbsp plain yogurt (creamy texture, like velouté) |
4 tbsp grated coconut + more for decoration |
2 tbsp confectioner’s sugar |
about 12 to 16 large strawberries |
for the strawberry coulis |
7 oz strawberries |
dash of lemon juice (about 1 tbsp) |
2 oz fine sugar |
Directions:
1. For the Cream
2. Mix together the mascarpone cheese with the yogurt, sugar and coconut.
3. Take a ring mold (mine are 3″ x 2.5″) and place it in the center of a dessert plate (You will share the cream between the 4 servings.
4. Wash your strawberries and slice them lengthwise.
5. Place them upstraight in the molds, on top of the cream.
6. Gently remove the molds.
7. Place the desserts in the fridge for 45 mns, so that the creams get firmer (but you can eat it right away too!)
8. For the Strawberry Coulis
9. In a food processor, mix together the sugar, with the strawberries and add the squeezed lemon juice.
10. Reserve in the fridge.
11. Final Touch
12. To serve, sprinkle the strawberries with some extra grated coconut and pour some coulis around the cream. It is fresh and delicious. This dessert takes literally 15 mns to make! This counts!
