Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh strawberries
- 240 ml heavy cream
- 50 grams powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 5 leaves mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cold water, pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel, and hull them (remove the green tops). You may leave them whole or slice them into halves or quarters, depending on your preference.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream.
Step 3
Add the powdered sugar, lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the heavy cream.
Step 4
Using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat the mixture on medium speed until soft peaks form. This will take about 3-4 minutes with a hand mixer. Be careful not to overwhip the cream; it should be slightly stiff but still smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Divide the prepared strawberries evenly among serving bowls or glasses.
Step 6
Spoon or pipe the lemon cream over the strawberries, making sure each serving gets a generous dollop.
Step 7
Optional: Garnish each dish with a fresh mint leaf for a pop of color and freshness.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful dessert!
