Ingredients
- Rice cakes2 cakes, about 18 g
- Light cream cheese40 g
- Strawberries80 g
- Balsamic glaze5 g
Glaze rather than vinegar because it sits on the fruit instead of soaking into the rice cake.
- Black pepperA grind
Method
Hull the strawberries and slice them lengthways into thin ovals.
Spread the cream cheese thickly over both rice cakes right up to the edge, so the fruit has something to hold onto.
Overlap the strawberry slices across the top, dot the balsamic glaze over in the smallest drops you can manage and finish with pepper. Eat within a few minutes, before the rice cake softens.
Worth knowing
- Rice cakes go soggy the moment cream cheese meets them. Build these right before eating, not in the morning for later.
- Strawberries and balsamic is an old Italian pairing. The pepper is part of it, not a garnish.
