For 4 people ()

Recipe

  • 400 mL cream (up to 30% fat)
  • 2 teaspoon(s) gelatin
  • 3 tablespoon(s) water
  • cup(s) strawberry crush
  • cup(s) sugar, plus 2 tbsp

10-Minute Strawberry Mousse Directions
  1. Soak the gelatin in water till it swells up or absorbs all the water.
  2. Mix sugar and cream. To it, add the gelatin and water mixture and heat over a double boiler, stirring gently till the gelatin dissolves. Remember to dissolve the gelatin into the cream mixture over a double boiler only. If melted over direct heat, the gelatin will taste funny in the final product.
  3. To this, add the strawberry crush and whisk on medium speed for 3 minutes.
  4. Sieve the mixture (to remove pieces of gelatin) into attractive dessert glasses or bowls and let it set by refrigerating it for 4 hours.
  5. Decorate with fresh strawberries and chocolate chips.
