Strawberry Tiramisù

egg-free

I wanted to make a light, summery, egg-free dessert.
For that purpose I used yogurt instead of mascarpone and a strawberry syrup instead of coffee.
People often state that a tiramisù without coffee and mascarpone isn't a real tiramisù.
Nonetheless I decided to call it a tiramisù.



I took major inspiration here, here and here .


For this summer dessert you will need:

Strawberries (washed)
Boudoirs or savoiardi (depending on how you like to call them)
125 gr yogurt
10 gr vanilla sugar
100 ml water
33 gr sugar
Optional: rum (if only served for adults)


Take about eight strawberries and cut/chop them in four. 
Then start to make your syrup by putting your water and sugar (the 33 grams) in a pot on medium heat. Let it not boil, but make sure the sugar has dissolved. At that point take the pot of the heat and add your chopped strawberries and a splash of rum.

Make then the "cream" by beating up the yogurt with the 10 gr vanilla sugar.

Then it's time to assemble the dessert.

Soak your boudoirs in the syrup. Align them in a glass container making sure to leave as less as possible space between them. Pour half of the "cream" on that range.

Soak again some boudoirs and align them as I stipulated above. 

TIP: If you still have some strawberries in your syrup put them on top of the boudoirs

Pour the remaining cream on the boudoirs.

Leave in the fridge to let it cool down!



Before serving slice a couple of strawberries and decorate your tiramisù.




Epic Fish Tacos with Homemade Tortillas

avocado

Here it is, the first salty recipe on my blog.
And it's not the usual, traditional Belgian course that I'm going to present you.
No, it's the recipe of the Epic Fish Tacos.


I found it here, a blog that I really like and from where I take a lot of inspiration.

 Without further-doing here is what you need to make those tacos (for 3 people):

 For the filling:
400 gr of white fish (I used Cod)
garlic
2 limes
4 tbsp vegetable or olive oil
salt
1 avocado
1 red onion
1 fresh salad

For the homemade tortillas (recipe here):

200 gr flour
37 gr of butter or vegetable oil
1/4 tsp salt
90 ml hot water


Start of by making the dough for the tortillas, mix the flour and the butter/oil together until you get a sandy mixture. Dissolve the salt in 80 ml of the water and add slowly to the dry mixture. If the dough isn't soft add slowly the rest of the water. Divide your dough in 6 balls and let it rest for at least half an hour.

In the meanwhile make your guacamole accordingly to Roses recipe. Make the fish marinade by using a mortuar in which you 'mix' the salt with the juice of one lemon and  the olive oil. Lay the fish filets in the marinade for about thirty minutes.

 Wash your salad. Set aside in a beautiful bowl.

 Now unroll your 6 individual dough balls on a floured surface. Once that's done you can start baking them in a pan (without any butter or oil in it). Make sure to bake them enough. Set aside.

 Grill your fish in your griddle pan and set on a plate once it's well baked.

 Put your avocado, tortillas, fish and salad on the table and let everyone assemble their taco.





Enjoy!


XO!
