This inspired veggie recipe is topped off with homemade ice cream and a crunch made from pomegranate seeds, cashews, chickpeas, raspberries, lemon balm and pistachios. Guaranteed to boost your vitamin levels!
Directions
To make the lemon ice cream: Stir together the lemon juice, agave syrup, buttermilk (keep 2 tablespoons to one side) and grated lemon zest and freeze in an ice maker for approx. 5 hours. Purée the frozen lemon cubes in the food processor with 2 tablespoons of buttermilk. Pour the mixture into a chilled container and freeze for another 30 minutes. Using an ice cream scoop, place 6 scoops on a chilled plate and freeze again.
To make the pineapple carpaccio: Peel the pineapple and shred it into thin slices using a grater. Arrange the pineapple slices on plates. Mix together 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and the lime juice and brush the pineapple slices with this dressing.
To make the topping: Toast the chickpeas and the cashew nuts in a dry pan and caramelise with the remaining maple syrup. Allow to cool on a sheet of baking paper and chop the chickpeas and cashew nuts. Knock the pomegranate seeds out of the pomegranate half and mix together with the caramelised chickpeas and cashew nuts, the chopped lemon balm, freeze-dried raspberries and chopped pistachios.
Arrange the scoops of ice cream on the carpaccio and sprinkle with the topping and lemon balm leaves.
