How to make homemade strawberry sauce ?

Wash the fresh strawberries, remove the tips and dry them, then cut them into cubes.

Add the cut strawberries to the sugar and mix gently, then refrigerate for 3 hours.

Put the icing sugar, strawberries and strawberry juice into a casserole dish, add a quarter of the fresh lemon juice and bring to the boil over a low heat. Skim off any white foam and simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and bubbles, then add a quarter of the lemon juice and bring to the boil.

Place the strawberry sauce in a tightly sealed container that is free of oil and water, and refrigerate for up to a week.
