Summer mess

A quick and simple recipe, ideal as a light dessert at the end of a scrumptious BBQ. This mix of fresh strawberries and meringues with cream is a variation on the classic Eton mess

Dish Details:


INGREDIENTS:

Summer mess250ml whipping cream
150g Onken Greek yogurt
450g strawberries
4 meringue nests
1 pkt Dr. Oetker Mini Mini Marshmallows
1 pkt Dr. Oetker Milk Chocolate Chips

To decorate
Dr. Oetker Sugar Strands or Dr. Oetker Chocolate Stars


PREPARATION:
Put the cream into a bowl and whisk until peaking, fold in the yogurt, cover and refrigerate.

Wash, dry and hull the strawberries, place half in a bowl and mash with a potato masher to release some juice, but retain chunks. Fold a quarter of the remaining strawberries into the bowl.

Lightly crush the meringues and fold into the cream with three-quarters of the Dr. Oetker Mini Mini Marshmallows and the Dr. Oetker chocolate drops.

Spoon a good tablespoon of this mixture into 6 plastic tumblers glasses. Add a layer of strawberries then repeat with another layer of meringue mess finishing with more strawberries.

Decoration ? kids will love this bit!

Scatter over the remaining Dr. Oetker Mini Mini Marshmallows and add Dr. Oetker Sugar Strands or Dr. Oetker Chocolate Strands

Tip: This dessert needs to be assembled just before serving as the meringues will dissolve into the cream and lose that lovely crunch.
