Strawberry Sauce is a delicious quick recipe for a sauce that is perfect as a topping over so many foods. I love to add this to cheesecake and sponges, pancakes and ice creams and even over cereal. My favourite is on top of soft panna cotta with a sprig of mint.

Strawberry Sauce

Vibrant sauce that adds that finishing touch to so many desserts and puddings.
