Did you know that strawberries and kesong puti go perfectly well together? Fry them up then add in your choice of toppings like melted chocolate, rice krispies, and desiccated coconut and you’ve got yourself a fun party appetizer!
Pit the strawberries by slicing the top end and removing the center with a paring knife. Fill the center of a strawberry with kesong puti. Use a barbecue stick to hold the strawberry and cheese in place. Do this for the other strawberries. Refrigerate for an hour.
Fill a pot with enough cooking oil and set over high heat. Get the strawberries and dip them one by one into the batter. Slowly place into the hot oil and cook until brown. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen towel. Set aside.
Prepare a double boiler by filling a pot with water and setting a heatproof bowl on top. Boil the water and reduce to a simmer. Add the chocolate shavings onto the bowl and mix just until melted and smooth.
Dip half of the fried strawberries one by one into the chocolate and then onto the desired toppings. Refrigerate until chocolate sets or serve as is.
