Ingredients
  

  • 250 g strawberries roughly chopped into bitesize pieces
  • 25 g sugar
  • 125 ml whipping cream or thickened cream
  • 100 ml Plain Greek yogurt
  • 3 meringues

Instructions
 

  • Place the roughly chopped strawberries in a bowl and sprinkle over the sugar. Stir, then leave for 20 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, in a medium to large mixing bowl whip the cream to stiff peaks and lightly fold in the Greek yogurt.
  • Spoon one third of the strawberries into another bowl and roughly mash the other two thirds with a fork to make a chunky compote.
  • Roughly break up the meringues.
  • Lightly fold the compote, strawberries and meringue pieces through the cream yogurt mixture. Be careful not to over mix – you want pink swirls running through the cream rather than it being pink all the way through.
  • Spoon into three bowls, and serve immediately.
