Fresh strawberries are tossed with a syrupy glaze for this easy dessert.
Looking for something special, for someone special? Adorn this pile of marinated strawberries with a homemade labneh and a rich balsamic dressing. Add a final flair with a couple of basil leaves.
- First, make the labneh. Place the yoghurt into a muslin cloth or tea towel over a sieve and refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight.
- Place the whole strawberries into a small pot with the sugar, water and vanilla, slowly bringing it to heat. Stir gently until softened. Add the arrowroot, cooking for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
- In another small pot, heat the balsamic and sugar. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, reducing until slightly syrupy. Cool.
- When ready to serve, spread the labneh over a serving plate. Top with the strawberries, basil leaves and the balsamic drizzle.
- Enjoy scooping it up with some toasted bread.
