Ingredients
- Package egg roll wrappers
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- ¾ cup whipping cream
- Fresh vanilla bean
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- Diced frozen strawberry’s
- Strawberry coulis
- Fresh basil
Directions
Cut the egg roll into 1 ½ inch strips make sure you have 3 strips in total.
Now deep fry them until golden and set aside to cool.
Now make the whipping cream and if you can use fresh vanilla bean in it helps lift the flavor up. Now cut your strawberries into slices and take one large strawberry and dice it finely and put in the freezer. Take another ½ cup of strawberry’s, into a hot pan with sugar and make a coulis, when you have strawberry jam take out and blend until smooth.
Now mix the cut strawberry’s with the whipping cream and we can assemble. Start by dusting the egg rolls with icing sugar, now take the coulis and paint it on the bottom of the first eggroll strip and place on the plate. Now a layer of the whip cream and strawberry’s and repeat one more time finishing with last strip on top.
I finished with some whip onto the plate and I dropped the frozen strawberries around with some torn up basil. I finished with an egg roll circle on top which I made my wrapping and egg roll wrapper around a ring mold and baking it for ten min.
This was my first attempt at this and It tasted really great and a good way to celebrate the strawberry. You can make this with puff pastry as well instead of the egg roll wrappers. Just roll the pastry out thin, bake it between two sheet trays to keep it flat and from rising and cut out in the same shape as the egg roll.
Have fun with this one it was a blast to make.
