Ingredients
  

For the Mousse
  • 200 g Fresh Strawberries Substitute with raspberries or blueberries for a berry twist.
  • 3 tablespoons Maple Syrup Can swap with granulated sugar.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Use seeds from half a vanilla bean for richer flavor.
  • 1 cup Coconut Cream Chill a can of full-fat coconut milk and scoop out the solid cream.
  • 1 tablespoon Agar Powder Do not skip this; pectin is a possible experiment.
  • 1 cup Aquafaba Ensure it’s at room temperature for the best whip.

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Medium saucepan
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by rinsing the strawberries under cool water, pat dry, remove stems, and blend with maple syrup and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. In a saucepan, combine coconut cream and agar powder, whisk until agar dissolves, and bring to a boil, then stir for an additional 2 minutes.
  3. Carefully pour the hot coconut cream mixture into the strawberry puree, whisk until combined, and let cool for approximately 20 minutes.
  4. Whip the aquafaba on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 5-10 minutes.
  5. Gently fold the strawberry mixture into the whipped aquafaba in two parts, maintaining airiness.
  6. Transfer to ramekins, cover, and chill for at least 3 hours until firm.
