Disney COOKABOUT Recipe: Strawberry Mousse with Basil Berry Salad

This is probably one of the most delicious desserts I have ever tasted. I definitely want to make this again and again and lick every last drop from the mixing bowls and ramekins.

I prepared the Mousse with Basil Berry Salad as well as the Biltong and Avo Tacos with Chunky Salsa on the night. Both these Disney Cookabout Recipes were quick and easy – and very delicious!

Mousse Ingredients

• 120g ripe strawberries, washed, hulled and halved
• 120g low fat plain yogurt

Basil Berry Ingredients

• 100g mixed berries
• 30ml passion fruit pulp
• 4 basil leaves torn
• Extra basil for serving

Method

• Puree the strawberries in a blender and keep aside.
• Beat the yogurt, mascarpone, vanilla seeds and honey until it is thick and fluffy. Place in fridge for 15 minutes to set.
• Make the Basil berry salad by cutting the berries into halves and quarters. Add the passion fruit pulp and the basil mix gently. Keep aside.
• Spoon the mousse into 2 serving glasses or ramekins and layer with strawberry puree.
