Strawberry Banana Mousse Recipes

Steps:

• Combine chocolate, 1/4 cup of the milk and the sugar in top of a double boiler (chill remaining milk in the freezer).
• Cook and stir over simmering water until chocolate melts. Pour a small amount of hot chocolate over egg yolks and beat well. Pour egg mixture into chocolate mixture on top of double boiler. Stir in salt. Cook and stir over hot water until mixture thickens. Cool completely.
• Scrape cold milk into mixing bowl and beat until very stiff. Fold chocolate mixture into stiffly beaten milk. Fold in vanilla, banana and strawberry slices. Spoon into mold, freezer tray or individual cups and freeze until firm.

Steps:

• Choose four of the best-looking strawberries and set these aside to finish the mousse, then hull and roughly chop the rest. Tip these into a blender or food processor along with the sugar and blitz until smooth.
• Whisk the cream to stiff peaks. Reserve roughly 4 tbsp of the strawberry purée in a small dish, then fold the rest through the whipped cream until it turns an even shade of pink. Divide the reserved purée between four small serving glasses or ramekins. Spoon the mousse over the top, then chill for at least 1 hr. Will keep chilled for up to a day. Just before serving, halve the reserved strawberries and use these to decorate the mousse.
