Cooking

Step 1

Prepare the strawberry cheesecake base. To do this, first of all, cut the butter into small cubes and leave at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Place the cookies in a tight clean bag, tie it loosely and lay it on the desktop. Roll over it several times with a rolling pin so that small crumbs form inside.

Step 3

Pour the contents of the package into a bowl. Add oil and mix thoroughly with a spatula. Put the resulting mixture into a heat-resistant split form with a diameter of 22 cm, spread along the bottom and tamp. Place the base of the curd cake in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Step 4

For the cream of the strawberry cake, cut the vanilla pod in half lengthwise. Scrape the seeds into a large bowl. Rub the cottage cheese through a fine sieve and add to the vanilla.

Step 5

Pour in powdered sugar. Add the grated zest and beat with a mixer until a mass of a homogeneous consistency is obtained. Soak the gelatin in a little cold water.

Step 6

Heat cream (100 ml) to 40°C. Put gelatin in them and mix. Strain through a fine sieve onto the curd mass. Add the remaining cream and beat the cream for the cake with a mixer on low speed.

Step 7

Remove the strawberry cake base from the refrigerator. Spread the curd cream over the chilled cake and smooth. Place the cake in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours.

Step 8

Wash strawberries, dry and clean. Cut a third into nice slices. Grind the rest of the berries and powdered sugar in a blender. Pass the puree through a sieve.

Step 9

Carefully transfer the cooled cake from the pan to a large plate. Arrange the strawberry slices on top and pour over the puree. Garnish with sliced lemon zest.
