How to Make Yoghurt Mousse With Strawberry Sauce

  1. Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups Greek yoghurt, 2 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  3. Gently heat the bloomed gelatin in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until completely dissolved. Remove from heat.
  4. Add about 1/4 cup of the yoghurt mixture to the dissolved gelatin, stirring vigorously to temper it.
  5. Pour the gelatin mixture into the remaining yoghurt mixture, stirring constantly until smooth and well combined.
  6. Taste and add more sugar if desired (up to 1 teaspoon).
  7. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes, or until the mixture begins to thicken but is still pourable.
  8. Remove from the refrigerator and whisk the mixture until smooth.
  9. In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream with 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.
  10. Gently fold the whipped cream into the yoghurt mixture using a rubber spatula until just combined.
  11. Divide the mousse into individual serving dishes or a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
  12. For the strawberry sauce: Puree 1 cup fresh strawberries, 2 tablespoons strawberry preserves, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Press the puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds.
