Fabulous Friday Flavour: Easy Peach Strudel

The thought of peaches had occupied my mind loads in the past few weeks.  And after finding that I still have phyllo dough, yoghurt and whipped cream in my fridge that were about to expire, the electrons in my brains sent a shock to my nervous system –  telling me that I needed to use them for something with peaches.

Fresh peaches are pretty hard to find here in Thailand, and the ones that are sold in the supermarkets are usually prohibitively expensive that they are not even worth a glance! So I made do with can peaches and decided to make-up my own peach strudel recipe after scouring through the many basic recipes of strudels. I still need to work on the art of folding the phyllos nicely, but it was hard given the delicate texture and the fact that the creamy fillings made the folding a lot harder!

  2. WOW! That peach strudel looks amazing and I bet it tastes divine. Homemade cooking is always the best, I will definitely have to give this recipe a try! ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Homemade stuff are awesome (only when they turn out well!) :p I’m glad the peach strudel did! ๐Ÿ˜€ Would love to know how it turns out for you when you give it a try! ๐Ÿ™‚

  3. YUM! I love new ways of using phyllo. This reminds me of an old recipe I have and need to dig out. It uses fruit and phyllo, but it is layered, so no folding involved ๐Ÿ™‚

    • ooooh! Pull out that old recipe Jas! Actually, layering sounds like a splendid idea! I’ll have to try that next time. Thank for the suggestion!
