Steps

No cooking

1

Put the meringue nests in a bowl & crush them with the end of a rolling pin.
Save a few pieces of strawberry for decoration & crush the rest roughly with a fork, you want some pulpy & some still chunky!
2

In another bowl whip the cream until it forms soft peaks.
Mix the crushed strawberries into the cream then gently fold in the meringue.
3

Divide between four serving bowls & garnish with the pieces of strawberry &-if you have any- a few mint leaves.
Serve immediately.
