Excellent dessert - loved the combo of the rich/creamy/tart curd and the fresh fruit. Thanks. -
this is a delicious dessert, I just used the juice of one whole lemon and that seemed to work fine, this would make a wonderful dessert to serve at dinner party, thanks for sharing Nif, this was made for KK's Strawberry Patch game -
This is fabulous!I love strawberries and this is just so good! I had guests for dinner last night, and they raved over this elegant dessert! I added a touch of Grand Marnier, and that just put it over the top completely! Thanks, Jen for a definate keeper!Made for a forum event at KK. -
Another great recipe from Nif! The whole family enjoyed this healthy dessert. The lemon sauce really takes it over the top. In fact later on we had some ice cream with the left over lemon and strawberry sauce. I know that I will be asked to make the lemon sauce many more times - the kids just loved it. Made for PRMR

I love great food and I particularly like trying cuisines new to me! Although I don't prepare as much food as I used to, creating in my kitchen is still one of my favourite things to do. Enjoy!
