Strawberry and cream soup

By Phillippa Cheifitz

Difficulty Easy

Ingredients

Crushed strawberries
Cream
Crunchy sugar
Sliced strawberries
Sugar-chocolate mix
Fresh mint

Method

A child’s treat — crushed strawberries, cream and crunchy sugar — grows up. Blend hulled strawberries with cream to a soupy consistency.
Ladle into large wide soup bowls. Top with sliced strawberries and grind over a sugar-chocolate mix to taste. Pretty up with sprigs of fresh mint if you like.
