Strawberry pie
Ingredients
Pie crust
100 g butter or margarine
3 dl plain flour
150 g almond paste
1 tbsp water
Filling
1 1/2 dl whipping cream
3 sheets of gelatine
2 egg yolks
1 dl Dansukker White Syrup
250 g quark
1 tsp Dansukker Vanilla Sugar
1/2-1 l strawberries
Decoration
Lemon balm
Instructions
Chop the fat, flour and almond paste finely to a breadcrumb consistency. Add the water and quickly work together to make a dough. Chill for 15 minutes. Turn the oven to 175 °C.
Press the dough into a springform tin about 27 cm in diameter. Bake the pie crust in the centre of the oven for about 20 minutes. Leave to cool.
Soak the gelatine sheets in plenty of cold water. Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks.
Simmer the egg yolks and syrup over a low heat until the mixture thickens. Press the water out of the gelatine sheets and stir them into the egg mixture along with the quark and vanilla sugar. Leave to cool. Gently fold in the whipped cream.
Put the filling into the cooled pie crust. Wash and trim the strawberries and arrange them on top of the filling. Decorate the pie with a sprig of lemon balm.
