Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

3 tablespoons sugar (adjust based on sweetness of strawberries)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 tablespoon gelatin powder

3 tablespoons cold water

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional: Fresh mint leaves for garnishing

Instructions
 

In a blender or food processor, add the sliced strawberries along with the sugar and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Set aside.

    In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom.

      Once the gelatin has bloomed, gently heat it in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds or until fully dissolved. Ensure not to boil it.

        In a large mixing bowl, pour the strawberry puree and add the dissolved gelatin and vanilla extract. Mix well to combine.

          In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.

            Gently fold the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture in three parts, ensuring you maintain the fluffiness.

              Once combined, spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls.

                Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
