Ingredients
1 cup Marshmallows, small
200g Sugar
500 g Fresh strawberries, washed & hulled
6 Eggs, 4x yolks and 2x whole
2 Cups fresh cream
Fresh strawberries to serve
Method
- Line a narrow bread tin with plastic wrap, or use a silicone shape of choice.
- Set ½ cup marshmallow and some fresh strawberry slices on the bottom.
- On a low heat, cook the strawberries and 100g sugar in a sauce pan until soft, about 10 minutes.
- Use an electric beater to whisk the egg yolks, whole eggs and remaining sugar until thick and mousse-like.
- While the strawberry sauce is still warm, blend it until smooth and mix it into the eggs while whisking to blend well. The warm strawberry sauce will cook the eggs.
- Whip the cream until soft peak, then fold it gently into the egg-mixture. Add the other ½ cup marshmallows.
- Spoon the mixture into the tin or silicone shape. Cover with glad-wrap, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.
