Easy to make fresh strawberry sauce. Add it to your favorite ice cream.
3
cups strawberries, finely chopped
1/2
cup sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1
teaspoon vanilla extract
Combine the strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries break down, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in the vanilla. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing against the solids; let cool completely. To store, cover and refrigerate up to 4 days.
