    Time: PT2M

  12. Second layer of cream

    Time: PT5M

  14. Finishing and decoration

    Spread the final layer of cream, garnish with the remaining strawberries and a few mint leaves.

    Time: PT3M

  15. Chill

    Cover the dish and place it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving.
