Instructions
Choux pastry
Heat the water, butter, sugar and salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil, remove from the heat and add the flour while stirring (always off the heat).
Allow the dough to dry out for a few minutes over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Remove the dough from the pan, place it in a bowl and let it cool for at least 20 minutes.
Once at room temperature, place the dough ball into a mixing bowl. Add the eggs one by one on medium speed.
Remove the dough when it is uniform and sticky. Place it in a piping bag and pipe the éclairs on a baking sheet.
Bake for 15-20 minutes at 180°C, fan oven.
Matcha cream
Take 30 cl of whole cream and dilute the matcha in it. Beware, there should be no lumps!
Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl, including 30 cl of diluted matcha, then whip until the cream is well set.
Place into a piping bag and set aside in a cool place.
Strawberry compote
Wash then cut the strawberries into pieces.
Place the strawberries in a bowl, add the sugar.
Cover and chill for 30 minutes in the fridge.
Assembling the eclairs
Once cold, cut the eclairs in half.
Place a thin layer of cream on the bottom of the eclairs.
Place the strawberry pieces onto the cream.
Add the cream as desired.
Cut a few strawberries for decoration and cover the top of the eclairs.
Sprinkle with icing sugar.
