5 Strawberry Recipes – Strawberries with Mint & Mango cream

I’m sharing a different strawberry-based recipe each day this week. Strawberries with Mint & Mango cream.

What you need (makes 4)

Punnet strawberries
1 measure Amaretto liqueur
3 ripe mangos
250ml full fat crème fraiche
4 mint leaves shredded
50g icing sugar
Juice of lime

What you do

Cut the strawberries into half and place in a bowl, pour over the Amaretto liqueur and shredded mint and toss, divide between four glasses.

Peel the mangos and cut away the flesh, discard the stone.  Place the flesh in a food processor and puree well scraping down a couple of times.

Place the crème fraiche, icing sugar in a bowl and whisk until soft ribbon like texture, stir in the lime juice. Gradually fold in the mango puree and spoon over the strawberries, serve well chilled.

Tomorrow, a recipe for a quick and easy Strawberry tart using only 5 ingredients.
