Chef's Note

Toasting the almonds from raw makes a world of difference in flavor compared to store-bought toasted nuts. Watch them closely in the final minute, as they can go from golden to burnt very quickly!

Ingredients
  • 250 grams non-fat plain Greek yogurt

  • 20 grams raw sliced almonds

  • 50 grams fresh strawberries

  • 30 grams fresh blueberries

  • 1.5 teaspoons honey

  • 0.25 whole vanilla bean

  • 0.5 whole lemon

  • 2 leaves fresh mint leaves

Instructions
  • 1

    Wash 50g strawberries and 30g blueberries under cold water. Remove the green hulls from the strawberries and cut them into quarters.

  • 2

    Place the strawberries and blueberries into a small saucepan. Add 0.5 tsp honey and squeeze in 1 tsp of juice from the lemon.

  • 3

    Place the saucepan over medium-low heat. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally and lightly mashing the berries with a spoon until they release their juices and thicken into a syrupy compote. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  • 4

    While the compote simmers, place a small dry skillet over medium heat. Add 20g raw sliced almonds.

  • 5

    Toast the almonds for 3-5 minutes, tossing the pan frequently to ensure even browning. Once they are golden brown and smell nutty, immediately transfer them to a small plate to stop the cooking process.

  • 6

    Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the lemon until you have 0.5 tsp of zest.

  • 7

    Place the 0.25 vanilla bean on a cutting board. Use a paring knife to split it lengthwise and scrape out the tiny black seeds from the inside.

  • 8

    In a medium mixing bowl, combine 250g non-fat plain Greek yogurt, the scraped vanilla seeds, the remaining 1 tsp of honey, and 0.5 tsp lemon zest. Whisk vigorously for 1 minute until the yogurt is aerated and the vanilla is evenly distributed.

  • 9

    Spoon the vanilla-infused yogurt into a serving bowl.

  • 10

    Pour the warm berry compote over the center of the yogurt. Top with the 20g toasted almonds and garnish with 2 torn fresh mint leaves.
