Citrus Mousse
Makes 4
Ingredients:
300ml Double or Whipping cream
100ml Condensed milk
Zest of one Large Lemon
Zest of one Large Orange
1Tsp of Lemon juice
30g Orange and lemon peel to decorate
Method:
Whip the cream until it resembles soft peaks. Then add the condensed milk slowly ensuring that it has been combined thoroughly.
Next, take the orange and lemon zest and put that into the condensed milk and cream mixture. Mix the zest until combined but not so much as the zest will stick to the whisk.
Lastly, pour the lemon juice into the mousse and fold it in quickly to prevent the mousse becoming liquid.
Transfer the mousse into small dishes or tins. To serve, sprinkle a small handful of the orange and lemon peel. Enjoy!
