- 2 tsp Kirsch, orange-flavoured liqueur, or brandy
- juice of ½ orange
- 4 eggwhites
- icing sugar, for dusting
- low-fat dairy dessert (optional), to serve (see tip)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Butter 4 x ¾-cup ovenproof soufflé dishes. Place strawberries in a bowl with sugar, liqueur and orange juice. Crush lightly using a fork. Set aside.
2. Whisk eggwhites until firm. Stir a spoonful into strawberry mixture. Lightly fold in remaining eggwhites. Spoon mixture into prepared soufflé dishes and level tops with a metal spatula.
