Add the strawberries and the corn starch to bowl and blend until lovely and smooth. Using a hand mixer or food processor is best.
400 g strawberries, 2 tbsp cornstarch
Pour the mixture into a saucepan and add the sugar.
200 g sugar
Place over a medium heat and stir until the sauce thickens. Normally up to 15 minutes.
Once thickened, remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract and salt and stir to mix.
2 tsp vanilla extract, 1 pinch salt
Finally add the chopped strawberries and stir gently once more.
Leave to cook for up to an hour stirring frequently to avoid setting.
Pour over cheesecakes, cakes, pancakes, ice creams and more.

Note 1: I always like to leave a few strawberries sliced up to add to the sauce after cooking. It adds texture and body to the sauce.
