Method

  1. Combine the sliced strawberries with the lemon juice, half the zest and 1 tbsp icing sugar in a bowl. Set aside at room temperature for 15-20 mins or until a couple of tbsp of strawberry juice have collected in the bowl.

  2. Divide the madeleines between 4 x 300ml glasses or bowls, then drizzle over the amaretto. Spoon over the sliced strawberries and any juices from the bowl. Carefully spoon over the custard on top, letting it mingle with the strawberries.

  3. Softly whip the cream and remaining 1 tbsp icing sugar to soft peaks. Spoon the cream over the custard, then top with the whole strawberries, the almonds and the remaining lemon zest.
