Strawberry carpaccio and its sweet basil-mint pesto
To make this recipe you will need the following ingredients: 1 bunch of basil mint (about 10 stalks) – 2 or 3 sprigs of lemon balm – the juice of half an organic lemon and the zest – 35 ml almond oil – a generous tablespoon of ground almonds – 2 teaspoons cane sugar – 250 grams of strawberries.
- Wash the basil mint and lemon balm. Then let them dry thoroughly before using them.
- Wash and peel the strawberries. Wipe them clean and cut them into thin slices to make a carpaccio. Then carefully spread the strawberry slices on a plate.
- To make the sweet pesto: put the remaining ingredients in a blender (the basil mint, the lemon balm, the juice of half an organic lemon and the zest, 35 ml almond oil, a generous tablespoon of ground almond and 2 teaspoons cane sugar). Mix until you get a pesto-like texture. A little advice, to prevent the leaves from turning brown, do not mix too long 😊
- Then pour your sweet pesto over your strawberry carpaccio.
To enjoy immediately or to keep cool. Tastes good !
