about the recipe

The Eton Mess is the freshest simplest dessert. How about a local, greener version?

Ingredients :

• 6 local kiwis
• 10 ml of water
• 40 g sugar
• 1 lime
• 6 meringues
• 500 ml UHT liquid cream

Preparation :

1. Finely zest the lime and squeeze out the juice. Peel 4 kiwis, dice them and mash them up with a fork while adding water, lime juice and sugar. Keep the preparation in a cool place and the zest separately. Peel the remaining 2 kiwis and dice them.
2. Whip the UHT cream and a little sugar up to stiff peaks.
3. Break the meringues into pieces and mix them with the whipped cream (keep a few larger pieces for serving).
4. Place a few diced kiwi cubes, 1 tablespoon of kiwi fruit coulis and a layer of whipped cream with meringue at the bottom of several glasses. Fill the glasses in layers.
5. Finish with a bit of coulis, a piece of meringue and the zest previously reserved and serve.
