Strawberry Moussecake with Flaming Meringue

It had already been a week rest and I guess it is time to churn out a nice dessert and also to spoil myself by indulging them later. What will be the best dessert to make this time after such a long hari raya break? Maybe something simple and yet looks beautiful and stunning. Hmmm…thinking!

I always wanted to use my new culinary torch, the one I bought from a hardware store, the best thing to make is a creme brulee. Creme brulee… hmmmm… sounds interesting as I can burn those sugar topping but in fact I just had them a day before at Mandarin Hotel. I guess I will not have such similar dessert as it will be so bored and crazy. I have an idea…… the vision of the flaming alaska came into mind… oh yes I would love that, but I had ran out of ice cream but I have some strawberry moussecake in my fridge. Strawberry moussecake. I make some meringue (whisk egg white and sugar) and I piped them onto the moussecake. Once done the flaming started. So cool and so fun as you can burn the dessert….lol.

Strawberry Moussecake

Strawberry mousse
Whipping cream 280gm
Melted strawberry puree 100gm

Melt the strawberyy and pour it in the whipping cream and fold well witha rubber spatula.

Pour a half layer of the strawberry mousse into the cake ring and refrigerate for 1 1/2 hours.
Inner layer, melt the soften gelatin into the hot strawberry puree, let cool until 30C. Then place a spoonful of the strawberry puree on the centre top area.
Pipe in another layer of strawberry mousse.
Then placee in freezer for an hour.
Outer layer, whisk egg with until foamy, add in granulated sugar gradually and whisk until stiff peak form.
Pipe the meringue along the cake edge. Burn the meringue with a culinary torch and freeze it for 15 minutes.

Yet another interesting and beautiful piece of dessert which I really encourage you to try, …………….. lovely, simple and delicious.
