Equipment

  • Sieve
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

Metric - US Customary
  • 400 g Strawberries washed, hulled and quartered
  • 25 g Icing Sugar
  • ½ Lemon juice only

Instructions

  • Place the strawberries, icing sugar, and lemon juice in a pan and simmer on a medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring often.
  • Blend to a smooth sauce using a stick blender or food processor.
  • Place a metal sieve over a bowl and press the strawberry coulis through the sieve.
  • Spoon or pour the coulis into jars or an air-tight container and store in the fridge.

Notes

Top Tips:
  • Taste the strawberries before pureeing them, and adjust the sweetness if necessary. If you want the coulis to be sweeter stir through a little more icing sugar and whisk to dissolve.
  • If using frozen berries there is no need to defrost them first.
 
Variations:
  • Try using different fruits such as raspberry, blackberries or blackcurrants.
  • Use orange or lime juice instead of lemon
  • Add the zest of the lemon (or other citrus fruit) to the coulis for a sharper flavour.
  • Make a double batch and freeze half.
 
Storage:
The coulis will keep in the fridge for 5 days. It can also be frozen.
