Coconut and strawberry parfait

January 25th, 2012
    Ingredients
  • 1/4 tsp finely grated lime rind
  • 2 tsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 tsp caster sugar
  • 1 x 250g punnet strawberries, washed, hulled
  • Coconut parfait

  • 1 tbs hot water
  • 1 tsp gelatine powder
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) chilled Light & Creamy Coconut Flavoured Evaporated Milk
  • 1 tbs caster sugar
  • 2 tsp shredded coconut, toasted

Method
Place lime rind, lime juice, sugar and one-third of strawberries in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth.
Thinly slice the remaining strawberries. Combine the strawberry puree and the sliced strawberry in a bowl. Divide the strawberry mixture among four 250ml (1-cup) capacity serving glasses.
To make the coconut parfait, place the hot water in a small heatproof dish. Sprinkle with the gelatine. Place the dish in a small saucepan. Add enough boiling water to come halfway up the side of the dish. Use a fork to whisk until the gelatine dissolves.
Use an electric beater to beat the gelatine mixture, evaporated milk and sugar in a large bowl for 1-2 minutes or until fluffy. Spoon the mixture evenly over the strawberry mixture. Place in the fridge for 6 hours or until set.
Sprinkle with the coconut to serve.
