Directions

  1. 1

    The day before, mix coconut milk and agar-agar. Bring to the boil while stirring, simmer for 2-3 minutes. Leave to cool for about 30 minutes, then cover and chill for about 45 minutes.

  2. 2

    In the meantime, chop the almonds coarsely for the ground. Roast them in a pan without fat and take them out. Mix with amaranth, rice and cinnamon. Bring margarine and sugar to the boil while stirring. Mix well with almond mix.

  3. 3

    Spread the bottom of a springform pan (20 cm Ø) thinly with oil. Spread the almond mix on it and press it to a base. Chill for about 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Rinse lemon hot, dab dry and finely grate the peel. 1⁄2 Squeeze the lemon. Stir 1 tbsp. juice, tofu, agave syrup and lemon zest until smooth. As soon as the coconut milk starts to attract and slightly gel, stir in the tofu cream.

  5. 5

    Beat the whipping cream with the whisks of the mixer until almost stiff and fold in. Pour the coconut cream onto the crumb base. Chill for at least 5 hours, preferably overnight.

  6. 6

    The next day for the strawberry jam wash, clean and puree the strawberries. Boil 150 g puree, 1 tbsp. lemon juice and jam sugar in a pot while stirring. Simmer for about 3 minutes. Let cool down for about 10 minutes.

  7. 7

    Stir in the rest of the strawberry puree. Spread on the cake immediately. Chill for at least 1 hour.
