Where do you stand on strawberries in savoury dishes? We are all for the combination of sweet and savoury, and here, Claire Thompson (food writer and chef) has pulled a blinder inspired by the classic British combo of strawberries and cream…
“I wanted to use these two quintessentially British ingredients to create a show-stopping commemorative dish, one to make your mouth water and your eyes pop. Sweet, sharp and fruity with the strawberries and vinegar, there’s a good buzz from the pink peppercorns and watercress while the shallots, both sweet and sharp, unite the lot along with the hazelnuts. As for the clotted cream, I’ve used it much like a burrata, as they do in Italy, or even mascarpone. A surprising addition perhaps, but a uniquely delicious one. Strawberries and cream – just a little differently.”
