  • 500 grams strawberries
  • 500 grams white sugar

  • Wash the strawberries thoroughly and cut off stems.
  • Cut them in halves or smaller and pour sugar over.
  • Leave in the fridge overnight.
  • Stir and put in a pot.
  • Boil over low heat while stirring continuously until syrup is smooth.
  • Add lemon juice.
