Strawberry Coulis

Instructions

1

Prepare the strawberries

Wash, hull, and halve the strawberries. Ensure they are free of any blemishes or dirt.

Pro tip: Use ripe strawberries for maximum flavour.

2

Combine ingredients

In a medium saucepan, combine the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and water. Stir to combine.

Pro tip: Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your strawberries.

3

Cook the mixture

Place the saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.

Pro tip: Avoid boiling the mixture to prevent burning.

4

Simmer until soft

Simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the strawberries are soft and the sugar has dissolved.

Pro tip: The mixture should be thickened slightly.

5

Blend the coulis

Remove the saucepan from heat and let it cool slightly. Use an immersion blender to puree the mixture until smooth.

Pro tip: A regular blender can also be used; just ensure the mixture isn't too hot.

6

Strain for smoothness

Pass the coulis through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds and achieve a smooth texture.

Pro tip: Use a spoon to help push the coulis through the sieve.
