Description
A delightful dessert combining the freshness of strawberries with the crunch of kataifi and rich chocolate.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds strawberries, quartered
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 4 ounces kataifi, chopped and shredded
- 1 cup pistachio cream
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 10 ounces chocolate chips
- 1 dollop whipped cream
- pistachios, chopped
Instructions
- Start by washing and slicing the strawberries. Add the berries to a bowl and sprinkle with the 2 tablespoons of sugar. Set the berries aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the tablespoon of butter to melt and stir in the kataifi. Stir constantly to brown and watch closely so that it does not burn.
- Once the kataifi is browned add the pistachio cream and stir to completely coat the kataifi.
- Add the cream to a large bowl and microwave for 1-2 minutes to warm the cream but not to boil. Add the chocolate chips to the warm cream and stir until completely melty and smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
- Layer the Dubai cups by spooning strawberries on the bottom of the cup, followed by the chocolate ganache, and kataifi. Repeat layers to fill the cup.
- When ready to serve add a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped pistachios.
Notes
- Ensure the kataifi is browned properly for a crunchy texture.
- Adjust sugar based on sweetness preference of strawberries.
