Another simple strawberry dessert that's ready and served within minutes. The recipe idea is from a Swedish recipe leaflet Arla Köket (2/2001, Jordgubbar på italienska).
Cut strawberries into small cubes, sprinkle with some sugar (optional) and divide between serving glasses. Whisk some whipping cream until soft peaks form, then season with a splash (or two) of Amaretto. Spoon over strawberries. Finally, crumble some meringues and sprinkle on top of cream.
A lovely contrast of flavours and textures, trust me :)

That looks so simple and pretty - I love the light pink crumbles.
ReplyDeleteI've just discovered how easy it is to make an eton mess, and this looks just as easy and YUMMIER! I'm gonna give it a go. I stumbled upon your blog by the way cos my bf's Finnish and i say nami nami ALL THE TIME :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks so pretty Pille...and sounds delicious! Love simple and elegant desserts like this :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous idea! Sort of a deconstructed Pavlova, and nicer looking than an Eton Mess.
ReplyDeleteHeatherfeather - I would have used white meringues, but I had eaten all of them :)
ReplyDeleteCatty - welcome to Nami-Nami!
ChichaJo -it was simple and elegant indeed.
Claudia - well, it lacked the marshmallowy aspect of a Pavlova. But it's definitely a possible way of serving Eton Mess, you're right :)
