Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - ⌛ 40 min.

Peel 3 tomatoes, cut in strips then in dice.

Put in a strainer, salt and mix. Leave to stand about one hour, to draw out some of the juice.

Stage 2 - ⌛ 5 min.

Prepare the vinaigrette by mixing 4 tablespoons olive oil with 1 lime juice.

Salt and pepper, and add a little chives.

Add this vinaigrette to the drained diced tomatoes. Set aside.

Stage 3 - ⌛ 20 min.

Prepare 250 g cauliflower tabbouleh but without tomatoes.

Stage 4 - ⌛ 7 min.

Start asembling glasses: Put guacamole into each one up to ¼ of the height.

The best way is to use a forcing bag to put guacamole tidily right into the bottom of the glass.

Stage 5 - ⌛ 7 min.

Using a fork, add diced tomato to another ¼ of the height (to halfway).

Be careful to not put too much vinaigrette with the tomatoes.

You might need to push the tomatoes down to compact them a little.

Stage 6 - ⌛ 7 min.

Add another ¼ height of cauliflower tabbouleh ( push this down too if needed).

Stage 7 - ⌛ 7 min.

For the last ¼, add houmous. Again, using a forcing bag is easier.

Stage 8 - ⌛ 3 min.

Finally, add a pinch of chopped chives or a pinch of paprika or curry on top.

It's ready.

Remarks

You can prepare the four mixes the day before, even preparing the glasses, in which case seal the top of each glass with plastic film, and remove from the fridge at least one hour before serving.

Keeping: Several hours in the fridge, covered by a plastic film.

Passion fruit jellies

Usually to make fruit jellies or (fruit "paste"), it's like jam but you need to cook fruit pulp and sugar much longer. Unfortunately, this long cooking is bad for both vitamins and flavour. In this recipe we use a special jam gelling agent, to reduce cooking time as much as possible .

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).
