Strawberries in Caramel and Orange Sauce

This is a richly coloured and perfumed sauce to serve with ice-cream. It can be made in advance and the berries added when reheating at dinnertime.

Serves 4
(with ice-cream).

Preparation time 7 minutes. Cooking time 4 minutes.

We used the Tellfresh® Microsafe® 750 ml round storer (without steaming rack).

30 grams unsalted butter
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
½ cup brown sugar
juice of 1 orange
1 punnet strawberries, hulled and (if large) cut into halves
1 tablespoon brandy or orange liqueur

Place the butter, orange rind, juice and brown sugar into the storer. Stir well. Put lid on storer with red vent open. Microwave on high for 1½ minutes. Remove lid and stir. Put lid on with red vent open and microwave for a further 1½ minutes.

If making in advance, you can stop at this stage.

At dinnertime, add berries. Put lid on storer with red vent open. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Let rest for 1 minute. Stir through brandy or orange liqueur. Serve hot with ice-cream.
