Ingredients
Method
5 steps- 1Hull the strawberries. Chop half into small pieces; crush or blend the rest with half the sugar and the lemon juice.
- 2Leave the purée for 10 minutes.
- 3Whip the cream with the remaining sugar and vanilla to soft peaks, then fold in the hung curd.
- 4Fold in most of the purée and the chopped berries in just two or three strokes so it stays streaky.
- 5Spoon into glasses, top with the remaining purée and chill 20 minutes or serve at once.
Serve it like this
Serve in clear glasses so the ripples show, with a halved strawberry and a crisp biscuit on the side.
