January 29th is Oprah’s 70th birthday. In this video I share when I cooked for her at a lunch with Princess Diana. This delicious tomato mousse was one of Princess Diana’s favorite dishes whenever she visited Buckingham Palace. But when I became her chef she was healthy eating so I had to completely change the recipe.
When Oprah came for lunch with the Princess at Kensington Palace we served this tomato mousse with lobster. But Oprah was on the full fat version and Princess Diana was eating the fat free version.

Tomato Mousse with Pureed Herb Dressing
Makes 6-8 ramekins
1 pound tomatoes
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 packet of gelatin powder
1 tablespoon tomato puree
1 small bunch dill
3 tablespoon onion
1 lemon

Into a blender add the tomatoes with the chopped onion, mayonnaise, sour cream, heavy cream and tomato puree, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
Pour into a bowl and stir in the finely chopped dill and fold into the mix.
Add the gelatin to a small pan and “sponge” with the juice from half of the lemon. Melt the gelatin over a low heat until it dissolves and then pour it onto the tomato mix, stirring it into the mix as you pour. Test the mix for seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the mixture into individual ramekins, molds or mini-savarin rings and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Just before serving, run a small knife around the edge of the mold and turn out the mousse onto a plate.

6 Tbs white balsamic vinegar
6 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbs chopped onions
1 Tbs sugar

1) Blend all of the above ingredients until smooth –adjust seasoning with the salt and pepper. Allow an hour before use for the flavors to infuse into the oil. Refrigerate for up to three days.
