  • 2 tsp grated lime zest
  • 1 piece lime peel (cut into fine strips)
  • 6 sheets gelatin
  • 200 g whipping cream
  • 400 g buttermilk
  • 4 tbsp powdered sugar
  • Salt
  • 400 g raspberries

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Soak gelatin in cold water. Whip cream to half-stiff peaks.

  2. 2.

    Whisk together buttermilk, remaining lime juice (reserve 2 tbsp for raspberry sauce), grated lime zest, 3 tbsp powdered sugar and a pinch of salt. Dissolve the gelatin in a small pot over low heat until liquid, add to the buttermilk mixture and stir carefully. Fold in whipped cream. Transfer to a bowl and refrigerate 3‑4 hours.

    For the sauce, strain the raspberries (reserve some for garnish) through a sieve. Mix with remaining lime juice and powdered sugar. When serving, pour a spoonful of sauce onto each plate. Use a tablespoon to scoop portions from the lime mousse and place them on top of the raspberry sauce. Garnish with leftover raspberries and fine strips of lime peel.
