Strawberry Fool - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
135 g strawberry jelly
350 g strawberries, rinsed
75 g caster sugar
500 g creamy fromage frais
Preparation
-
Cut the jelly into squares and place in a saucepan with 150ml water. Gently heat until the jelly cubes have dissolved then remove from the heat to cool.
Remove the strawberry stems and hull (the green leafy bit and the part where it's attached to the berry). Roughly chop the strawberries and put in the bowl with half the sugar.
Mash the mixture with a potato masher. Stir the jelly into the mashed strawberry mixture and put in the fridge. Leave until it's cold and just starting to set, about 2-3 hours.
Stir the strawberry mixture well, then fold in the fromage frais and remaining sugar.
Transfer the mixture to a clean serving dish and leave to set for about 2 hours.
