Steps:
- Fold crepes in quarters. Heat in 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high, flipping once, until warm and crisp, 5 minutes; divide between 2 plates.
- Return skillet to heat; melt 3 tablespoons butter. Stir in packed light-brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of kosher salt; cook, swirling pan, until darkened slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Add halved strawberries; cook until tender, 2 minutes. Remove from heat; add silver rum.
- To flambe, return skillet to medium-high heat. If using a gas burner, carefully tilt pan away from you to ignite; if using an electric burner, use a lit long match held just above the sauce. When flame subsides (5 to 10 seconds), spoon strawberries over crepes. Return skillet to medium-high heat and reduce sauce until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes; pour over crepes. Whisk heavy cream until thickened slightly. Drizzle over crepes; serve.

- In the other side, melt sugar.
- When sugar almost melts, add the orange juice and zests.
- Carefully add brandy and watch out for the flame!
- Serve hot over ice cream.
MANGOES FLAMBé
Steps:
- Preheat broiler.
- Wash and dry mangoes. Remove 2 flat sides of each mango with a sharp knife, cutting lengthwise alongside pit and cutting as close to pit as possible so that mango flesh is in 2 large pieces (reserve remaining fruit for another use). Make a crosshatch pattern with a small sharp knife, cutting across fruit down to skin at 1/2-inch intervals and being careful not to pierce through. Grasp fruit at both ends and turn inside out to make flesh side convex.
- Arrange fruit, skin side down, in a large shallow baking pan lined with foil and sprinkle evenly with 4 tablespoons turbinado sugar (total). Broil 5 inches from heat until fruit is golden brown (it will not brown evenly), about 5 minutes. Arrange fruit on a large platter.
- Cook rum with remaining sugar in a small saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, then carefully ignite rum with a kitchen match and pour, still flaming, over warm mangoes. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful strawberries for the best results.
- Use a high-quality rum for the flambé. A dark rum will add a richer flavor than a light rum.
- Be careful when flambéing the strawberries. Keep your face and hands away from the flame and do not let the strawberries catch fire.
- If you don't have a flambé pan, you can use a regular skillet. Just be sure to heat the skillet over medium-high heat before adding the strawberries.
- Serve the strawberries immediately after flambéing. They are best enjoyed warm.
Conclusion:
Rum flambéed strawberries are a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like them simple or topped with ice cream or whipped cream, rum flambéed strawberries are sure to be a hit.
