Strawberry Ice Cream Sauce

Ingredients:

• 3 cups finely chopped strawberries
• 0.5 cups of sugar
• Juice of half a lemon
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation:

1. Combine strawberries, sugar, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons water in a saucepan.
2. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries are softened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
3. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing down on the berries; let cool completely. Cover the sauce and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
