Feel like something sweet? A fruit sando is a popular snack in Japan, and this strawberries and cream version is pretty tasty and very easy to make!
Ingredients
- 200ml (7 fl oz) whipping cream
- 1 tbsp icing sugar
- 10 strawberries (or any fruit you prefer)
- 4 thick slices Japanese milk bread
Directions
Start by placing the cream and icing sugar in a bowl and whipping until stiff peaks form.
- Clean the strawberries and cut the tops off.
- To assemble the sandwich, place a piece of plastic wrap on your work surface. Add a generous amount of whipped cream in a pyramid shape on one slice of bread. Arrange three strawberries down the centre in the direction you will be slicing the sandwich in half. Fill the other sides with one more strawberry each, then pipe some more whipped cream to fill the gaps.
- Top with the second slice of bread. Wrap tightly in the plastic wrap and draw a line to indicate the direction the strawberries are aligned. Place in the fridge to rest and firm up for at least 1 hour.
- When ready to serve, cut in the direction that the centreline strawberries are aligned, as noted before wrapping.
