Strawberries & Mangoes with Lime Cream Sauce


This recipe requires some prior preparation, but is well worth the effort!

The Lime Cream Sauce is super easy to make...
Mill 200g raw sugar 20seconds@Speed9.
Insert Butterfly,add 6 egg yolks and cream 1minute@Speed4.
Add 450g single cream and the thinly peeled rinds of 2 limes - keeping the rind pieces large (you will need the juice later) and cook for 15mins@90degrees@SpeedSoft.
Set aside to cool until ready to serve.

Meanwhile...
Clean and slice 500-700g of fresh strawberries and pour over juice of 2 limes (at least 4Tbsp) and 2 Tbsp icing sugar (pre-milled).
Toss to coat and cool until ready to serve. We also slice up mangoes and chill them until we are ready to serve - you could add any fruit that you fancy! :)

Just before serving...
Whip 250-300g double cream (thickened cream would also work) until thick - using Butterfly @Speed4 - between 20seconds-1minute. Keep a close eye on the cream!!
Remove lime rind from chilled Lime Sauce and fold into cream - 30seconds-1minute@ReverseSpeedSoft - until smooth but not overbeaten.

To serve...
Layer strawberries, mangoes and lime cream sauce in glass dishes. Top with extra double cream and indulge!

Note: You may not use all of the Lime Cream Sauce while layering with the fruit... but do not fear! It is our experience that you always want to add more sauce as you go along - it is very morish! :)
