Strawberry season

Yay for all kinds of fruit that are in season in Bosnia! M. and I are enjoying the fruit daily - for the tenth anniversary of our first date, he bought us a kilogram of each cherries and strawberries. I guess after ten years he knows that he can show up at the door with fresh fruit for the anniversary and know that I'll be happy.

For those rare occasions when we are not enjoying the fresh fruit (or when strawberries start to soften slightly), here is an easy recipe.

Hope to see you soon!

Strawberry Galette

For crust use this recipe (I got four small galettes).

Topping

1 thinly sliced apple

500 g small-size strawberries

1 tsp of wild honey for each of the galettes

Juice of half a lemon

Powdered sugar for dusting

Once the crust is ready, slice the apple thinly and layer it in the middle of the galette. Sprinkle lemon juice on top, about 1-2 teaspoons per galette. Layer strawberries on top of the apples and drizzle honey over them. Serve warm and dusted with powdered sugar. Decorate with mint leaves or strawberry flowers.

Ovih dana uživamo u voću - prijeko potrebnom osvježenju nakon vožnje trolejbusom, recimo... Lagani recept za galette sa jagodama je interesantna promjena, a i dobro dođe da se iskoriste jagode koje su omekšale stajanjem ili od vrućine. 

Galette sa jagodama

Za koru koristite ovaj recept.

Topping

1 tanko nasječena jabuka

500 g sitnih jagoda

1 kašičica domaćeg meda (po jedna za svaku galetu)

Sok pola limuna

Šećer u prahu

Kada pripremite koru, tanko narežite jabuku i poslažite je po vrhu galete. Prelijte malo limunovog soka po komadima jabuke. Poredajte jagode na vrh i prelijte ih medom. Poslužite toplo i/ili sa kremom. Ukrasite listovima mente ili cvjetovima jagode.

Vidimo se uskoro!
