European glass
A little dessert that's rather long to make, but which will always impress your guests. Layered in a glass: a jellied red fruit coulis, a layer of pineapple charlotte cream, a layer of kiwi coulis, topped with a peeled clementine segment. It's "european" because it resembles the italian flag, and in another version with apricot instead raspberries, the irish flag (a country so dear to me). August 15th 2010244 K5 2 hours 30 min.
Fruit salad
To make a good fruit salad, there are three important points:- Choose fruits that go well together (avoid putting soft pears with crunchy apples for example).
- Remove absolutely all skins and seeds.
- Bring it all together with a good home made sugar syrup added to the fruit juices.
