Strawberry Puree

Got up this morning and remembered we had the first of the summer strawberries. Rather than just having the same old strawberries and cream I decided to make something different. So I made a puree to put into a yoghurt. To make the puree I used 250g of strawberries and 50g of Icing Sugar.
Method For Puree

1. Add the strawberries and icing sugar together in a liquidizer,
2. Blend these quickly and make sure it is properly blended,
3. When its done simply pass it through a sieve and if it does not all go through simply stir it round with a wooden spoon.

So after you have made the puree you can do loads with it. You could:

• Pour it over your homemade Ice Cream from our previous recipe,
• Make a yoghurt,
• Pour it over puddings
• Add to sumer drinks at your BBQ

So with our puree I simply stirred it into about 500g of Natural Yoghurt. Then stirred until fully mixed. Enjoy it with your breakfast or even as a little snack as it is good for you.

Great stuff from the Lad here, don't forget that you can apply the above to many of our berry fruits throughout the season, try Raspberries or Blackberries for instance. The puree can be made in a cooked form too, Lad can follow up on this soon. A cooked "coulis" is perfect for churning into an ice cream, sorbet or delice type dessert. Enjoy
