Ingredients
- 300 g strawberry tree fruits (koumara)
- 200 g sugar
- 50 g water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar, and heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely.
Add the koumara to the saucepan and boil together for 2 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the koumara and place them in a fine-mesh sieve. Press the fruits with a spoon to separate the pulp from the seeds, collecting the pulp in a bowl.
Return the extracted pulp to the saucepan with the syrup, stir well, and simmer for an additional 5–10 minutes until the syrup thickens slightly.
