Ingredients
- 200 g rhubarb
- 300 g strawberries
- 4 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoon soft butter
- 5 egg yolks
- 150 g sugar
- 500 ml whipping cream
- 100 g salted pistachios
Steps
- Preheat your oven and grill. Line a baking tray with baking paper and arrange the rhubarb and strawberries on it. Mix butter and honey and brush the fruit with it.
- Grill in the oven until the rhubarb is slightly caramlised and strawberries are soft. This takes around 6 minutes, turn over half way. Take roughly a quarter of the fruit und blend it with some of the free-running juice. Set the rest aside for later.
- In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. Whip the cream until stiff. Gently mix the egg mixture, cream and blended rhubarb, pour into a dish and place in the freezer until frozen through, at least 2 hours, even better overnight.
- Remove 30 minutes before serving to allow the semifreddo to slightly defrost, so it is easier to release the semifreddo and serve it on a plate.
- Chop the remaining rhubarb. Garnish semifreddo with rhubarb-strawberry mixture and roughly chopped salted pistachios. Ready to serve.
