Method: For the consommé
- Place a pot on the stove filled half way with water and bring to a boil.
- Place strawberry slices with castor sugar into a pan that will be large enough to fit comfortably onto the pot, wrap the entire pan in plastic wrap to form a tight seal.
- Place on top of boiled pot and allow steaming until the colour has left the strawberries and a bright red liquid has formed.
- Remove from heat and set aside and allow to cool.
- Once cooled strain through a fine sieve and keep the liquid - do not squeeze the strawberries
- The liquid should be clear and bright red.
- You can also use frozen strawberries.

Method: For the whipped brie cheese
- Chop up brie into small pieces.
- Add the cream.
- Using a paddle attachment on a mixer whip on medium speed until combined - don’t worry if there are lumps.

Method: For the caramelized pears
- Melt butter in a pan on low heat - do not allow the butter to change colour.
- Add the sugar and combine with butter.
- Add the pear wedges and toss to coat evenly.
- Increase the heat to medium.
- Pay very close attention as the sugar turns to caramel, DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED.
