Balsamic strawberries

    Ingredients:

    • 2 punnets of strawberries, topped and halved
    • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
    • 1/3 cup brown sugar

    Method:

    Place all ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine. Make sure that all the brown sugar has dissolved.

    Cover and place in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Stir every 30 minutes.

    Serve over ice-cream.

    Notes:

    • Soaking strawberries in this combination is called maseration. It applies to soaking fruit in anything like vinegar or liquer.
    • The flavour combination will surprise you and this is a really simple dessert that takes little preparation at serving time. It’s great for dinner parties and if I am looking to make it fancy, I crumble meringue over the top for texture.
