Instructions

Step 1
  • Heat the oven to 225 C. Place the puff pastry on a baking tray covered with baking paper.
Step 2
  • Brush with beaten egg. Cut the puff pastry into squares, about 8x8 cm.
Step 3
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for about 10 minutes. Let it cool.
Step 4
  • Cut off the top of the puff pastry, to later use as a lid (save the bottom half as well).
Step 5
  • Roast the coconut in a dry frying pan for about 2 minutes. Let it cool.
Step 6
  • Whip the cream. Slice the strawberries. Mix coconut, cream and icing sugar. The dish can be premade up to this point.
Step 7
  • Place half of the strawberries on the bottom half of the puff pastry, spread the coconut cream onto the strawberries and then add the remaining strawberries.
Step 8
  • Put the lids on and finish with a dusting of icing sugar for a final touch.
