Strawberries with Corsican mint and lemon

Ingredients

  • 500 g strawberries
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • the juice of half a lemon
  • 1 teaspoon Corsican mint sprigs

Method

  1. Rinse the strawberries, hull them and cut them in half.
  2. Mix them with the sugar and lemon juice and leave for 15 minutes, until a little juice forms.
  3. Rinse the mint sprigs quickly and pick off the leaves.
  4. Divide the strawberries between four bowls and scatter over the mint leaves just before serving. Lovely with a little yoghurt or vanilla ice cream.

Storing: Eat the strawberries the same day; only add the mint when serving.
