Strawberry Basil Salsa

Scrumptious Strawberries

Serves 4 to 6

Preparation time – 15 mins
This strawberry salsa is a perfect accompaniment to grilled meats or fish. Strawberries give it a sweet note while basil and shallots make it assertive enough to be part of a satisfying meal. It’s best the day it’s made but you could prep ingredients separately one day ahead of time.

What you'll need

2 Tablespoons lemon juice

1 extra virgin olive oil

1/4 salt

2 Tablespoons minced shallot

2 Tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil leaves

400g strawberries

Pinch ground black pepper

What to do

Directions

Whisk together lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir in shallot and basil. Hull strawberries and chop. Add to lemon juice mixture and stir until evenly blended.
