STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM MILLE-FEUILLE

It' s strawberries season and my mother bought one box and they gave her another. As they were quite ripe, I had to think of something so they wouldn't get over-ripe. So I came out with this idea that is very easy and it's delicious.



Ingredients:
1 sheet of puff pastry
6-7 strawberries cut into slices (depending on their size)

For pastry cream:
230 ml milk
1 tablespoon of corn flour
4 tablespoons of sugar
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Preheat oven at 200ºC (392K).

Bake the sheet of pastry, previously cut into three parts and poked with a fork, for 10-15 minutes or until it gets golden. Take it out from the oven, and let it cool down.



Mix, in different bowls, 180 ml of milk with two tablespoons of sugar and the vanilla, 50 ml of milk with all the corn flour and finally the yolks with the other to tablespoons of sugar. Mix everything in a pot and cooking over medium heat, keep stirring it until it gets dense. Remove from the heat and let it cool.

Now, assemble the mille-feuille:
1. Place one pastry sheet 


2. Put the milk with a piping bag 


3. Place the strawberries 


Repeat the process with the other layer and sprinkle icing sugar on the top.


And now it's ready to be eaten!
