STRAWBERRY FOOL
This Minimalist recipe is as basic as dessert gets, and especially in strawberry season it's just perfect. It is essentially fresh strawberries and whipped cream (substitute heavy cream, sour cream or yogurt). It can be eaten right away or refrigerated. Only a fool would pass this up.

CHEF JOHN'S FRESH BERRY FOOL
While certainly not light on the calorie counter, this berry fool (from the French 'fouler' meaning 'to mash') is shockingly airy on the palate. It's that contrast between the rich, fluffy cream and the syrupy, tangy fruit that makes this so much greater than the sum of its parts. Fresh berries are a classic, but this would work with peeled, diced, ripe peaches.

Steps:
- Peel the mangoes and remove the pulp from the seed, trying to keep at least 4 nice slices of mango intact for garnish; set them aside.
- In a food processor, puree the remaining pulp to a very fine puree with the salt.
- Strain through a fine mesh strainer, pushing hard on the solids.
- Chill your mixer bowl and whip in the freezer for 10 minutes.
- Whip the cream and sugar until soft peaks form.
- Carefully, carefully fold the cream into the mango.
- Wash, dry and hull the strawberries.
- Slice into quarters.
- Into each glass put a spoonful of strawberry pieces.
- Top with a dollop of mango-cream.
- Top with more berries, then more mango, continuing in layers this way until you have filled the glasses.
- End each with the mango-cream.
- Garnish each with one of the reserved slices of mango and a little mint sprig.
- Serve immediately.
- Note 1- if your mangoes are really sweet don't add any sugar to the cream, just whip it without it.
- Note 2- this dish won't hold long once you've put it together, 30 minutes or so most.
- But you can prepare the mango cream and strawberries up to the point of layering several hours a head.
- Get your glasses out and ready, and then just layer before service.
- Note 3- try this with raspberries instead of strawberries- heaven!
MANGO STRAWBERRY TRIFLE
This is a little different from most trifles since it does not use pudding. Instead I use a traditional old English dessert called a Fool to layer with the fruit and cake. You can make this with or without alcohol but I like it with a flavored rum:-). You can vary the fruit pulp you use and of course what type of fresh fruit. Endless variations! The Passive time is the chilling time.

Steps:
- Wash, hull and slice your strawberries and set aside.
- Using a serrated knife cut the pound cake into 1/2 inch slices and then each slice into thirds. Set aside.
- Pour all the cream in a large bowl and add the juice of 1/2 a lime. Whip either manually or with a mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Using a spatula, about a cup at a time slowly fold in the mango pulp until fully incorporated (the cream will soften but retain body).
- Now, here's hoping you have a large, deep glass dish of some sort! Begin with a layer of poundcake, layer tightly but now so tightly that they're smashed. If you're using alcohol pour about 1/3 to 1/2 a cup of the alcohol over the cake and allow to soak inches
- Then put a layer of strawberries on the cake. Next place the sliced strawberries around the perimeter of the cake and against the glass with the narrow end up.
- Now spoon a generous amount of the Mango Fool over the strawberries. Then a layer of cake, alcohol, strawberries, Fool and so on until you reach the top of your dish.
- At this point I like to decorate with some mint leaves or strawberries on top.
- Chill for about an hour and serve!

Tips:
- For the best results in your Mango Strawberry Fool, choose ripe, juicy mangoes and strawberries.
- Make sure the heavy cream is well chilled before whipping it. This will help it whip up quickly and smoothly.
- If you want a lighter fool, use low-fat or nonfat milk instead of heavy cream.
- For a vegan fool, use coconut cream or almond milk instead of heavy cream, and use a vegan-friendly sweetener instead of sugar.
- You can also add other fruits to your fool, such as raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries.
- For a special touch, garnish your fool with fresh mint or basil leaves.
