You-hoo! They are here! Red. Seedy. Juicy. So fragrant. Reminding us of happiness. The strawberries! Time to eat them in all possible ways, and one of my spring essentials is the quick and delicious strawberry mousse. It is ready in just a few minutes; you can eat it fresh or freeze it for a tasty, simple ice cream, bursting with May flavors. That's the spirit!

All you need is fresh, organic eggs, a bit of sugar, a touch of green mint to enhance it all, and the red beauties.

PREPARATION

With a fork, purée 200-250g of fresh strawberries.

Beat the egg whites with caster sugar.

By the end of egg mixing, when it begins to stiff, add the strawberry purée gradually, and beat some more.

Don't expect to get a stiff meringue in the end, but a creamier, softer mousse.

Chill for 10 to 15 minutes.

Pour the mousse in serving bowls.

Mince or slice 100-150g of strawberries and decorate the mousse with lots of them.

As a final touch of green, add the mint leaves.

Spirit of spring, turning to summer, spirit of May. May the Force of Strawberries be with you! :D
