Fruit coulis (fruit purée): Stage 1

Wash fruit (except if using strawberries), and cut into small pieces if fruit are the size of apricots or larger.

Put in the goblet of a blender, add 1 pinch vitamin C, squeeze ½ lemon over, and add 4 tablespoons sugar syrup or caster sugar.

Note: The smaller the pieces, the quicker and more efficient the blending.
