STRAWBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE COMPOTE

Jordgubbskompott med vit choklad

Serves 6

1 vanilla pod

1 lb 10 oz strawberries,

frozen and thawed

0.4 cup sugar

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

5.3 oz white chocolate

0.6 cup heavy cream

0.6 cup cream cheese

Decoration:

strawberries

white chocolate

Split the vanilla pod lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Bring strawberries, pod, seeds, sugar and lemon juice to a boil over low heat. Boil for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and leave to draw for 30 minutes so that it cools completely. Pour in a sieve and drain the juice (reserve it for e.g. making punch or something else to drink). Remove the pod and divide the compote in 6 serving glasses.

Break the chocolate in pieces and melt over a waterbath. Beat the cream but not too much. Gently stir the melted chocolate into the cream and also the cream cheese. Top the compote with the chocolate creme and cool for 30 minutes. 

Decorate with fresh strawberries and chocolate before serving. 

Enjoy!
