Balsamic strawberries with whipped mascarpone cheese


 

Ingredients


    * 15-20 fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
    * 1 tsp (or more) of sugar
    * 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
    * 2 tsp sugar
    * 1 tsp fresh lemon juice

Preparation


In a bowl, gently toss the strawberries with the sugar. Leave for 15 minutes.

Mix the balsamic vinegar, sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and the vinegar is reduced to a syrup-like consistency. Cool.

Whip together the mascarpone cheese, sugar and vanilla essence.

Portion the strawberries with their juices, mixed with a bit of balsamic syrup into serving bowls. Top with the mascarpone mixture and drizzle with the remaining balsamic syrup.
