Strawberry Sauce
Ingredients
- 250 g (1 1/2 cups) fresh strawberries
- 75 g (6 tbsp) sugar
- 3/4 tsp lemon zest
- 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Roughly chop the strawberries into small chunks.
- In a medium sized pot, combine strawberries, sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice. Heat over medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Using an immersion blender, blend the strawberry mixture until smooth. At this point, you can transfer the sauce into a mason jar to cool. Or if you wanted to remove the seeds from the sauce, run the sauce through a seive.
- Allow the sauce to cool completely before storing it in an airtight container in the fridge. Good for up to 1 week!
- Enjoy with your favorite ice cream, milk, or with my strawberry cream donut recipe! (see note)
