White chocolate pie with strawberries
Ingredients
20g butter, melted
Pie crust dough (home made* or bought)
200g fresh strawberries, cleaned, halved
50g brown sugar ( Muscovado )
100g white chocolate
250ml cream, chilled
Preparation
1
Grease the pie mold with butter and dust with some flour.
2
Place the pie crust dough in the mold, remove the excess dough, line with greaseproof paper. Cover with dry beans and bake for 10-15 minutes in the oven at 180˚C or until golden. Do not over bake the dough because it will be too hard when cooled. Take out of the mould to cool completely.
3
In a saucepan, combine sugar with strawberries, and cook over low heat until sugar completely dissolves. Set aside to cool.
4
Melt the white chocolate over low heat, stirring constantly. Whisk smooth by adding 50ml of the cream.
5
Whip the remainder of the cream (200ml) until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the white chocolate mixture.
6
Fill the pie crust with stewed strawberries. Cover with white chocolate cream.
7
Garnish with fresh strawberries and white chocolate swirls. Refrigerate until serving time.
