My dear old Dad used to make this coulis every summer. It was always so yummy and we would eat it with ice cream with extra strawberries. My mum would grow strawberries on her allotment. Mum would always grow a large amount.
Therefore my dad would make the abundance of these berries into a tasty sauce. For me, strawberries are part of a great British summer and by making this coulis it brought back brilliant summer memories too. We ate the coulis with almond biscuits and a chocolate cashew nut sauce. (Recipe coming soon.) It was lush. We loved it and we hope you do too.

Strawberry Coulis was a delicious sauce. As I mentioned in the introduction we ate it with almond biscuits and a chocolate cashew nut cream. It was very easy to prepare and cook. The best part of this recipe is that it is freezable. The sauce could be made in advance of a meal. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you. xxx
