 300 ml cream
 ¾ cup sugar

HOW TO MAKE IT
1

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Melt the butter and lightly grease a tart mould.

2

One by one, gently scrunch the filo pastry sheets and place them inside the tart mould to create a crinkled effect.
Brush generously with melted butter.
Bake for 20 minutes until lightly golden.

3

Meanwhile, prepare the cheesecake filling. Whisk together:

  • Cream cheese
  • Cream
  • Sugar
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla
  • Lemon zest
  • Salt

Cut the strawberries into small pieces and fold them into the mixture.

4

Remove the tart from the oven.
Using a spoon, gently flatten some of the raised filo sections in the centre and pour in the cheesecake filling.

5

Return to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the filling is just set in the centre.

6

Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Dust generously with icing sugar.

OCEAN GARDEN TIP

Serve with extra strawberries, fresh mint leaves, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
