PromotionsGrilled strawberries with vanilla ice cream
Difficulty: Easy
Preparation Time: 15min
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- Strawberries
- Brown Sugar
- Balsamic Vinegar
- Vanilla Ice Cream
- 500g of ripe but firm strawberries
- 2 tablespoons of brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon of good quality balsamic vinegar
- 4 scoops of vanilla ice cream
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
- A pinch of freshly ground black pepper (optional, but highly recommended)
Preparation
- Prepare the strawberries
Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries. Remove the stems and cut them in half or into large quarters, depending on their size. - Marinate lightly
Place them in a bowl and sprinkle brown sugar on both sides. Add the balsamic vinegar and let them sit for 5 minutes to allow them to release their juices. - Roast
Preheat the grill to a high temperature.
Place the strawberries directly onto the very hot grill and grill for 1–2 minutes on each side, until the sugar caramelizes and light golden marks appear. - Plating
Serve the strawberries while still warm and accompany them with a quenelle or scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Garnish with a fresh mint leaf and, if you're feeling adventurous, a very fine pinch of freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavor.
Chef's Tricks
-
The grill must be very hot so that the sugar caramelizes quickly without the strawberry becoming too soft.
-
If you want a more intense finish, you can first reduce the balsamic vinegar in a saucepan until it has a syrupy texture and use it as a final touch.
-
For a more gourmet version, add some dark chocolate shavings or a little orange zest.
