Strawberry Mousse

I had some left over strawberries and some agar agar.Then this idea of strawberry mousse came,while I  was watching some you tube videos.Without any hesitations,prepared this mousse.That was a lovely mousse.Well this is my second attempt in serving this to Rohith.I was half successful,he ate some 4 spoons.But will never give up.Will try more variations in this fruit.

I have used agar agar,while the original recipe called in for gelatin.We can also use agar agar.If u want the mousse to be like ice cream,then go ahead and use more agar agar pwdr.Mine was like a semi ice cream.Planning to do more mousse varieties in future.This is a perfect dessert for pot lucks as it can be prepared one day before and served.Give it a try ,u will love it.
