Method
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the sliced strawberries and granulated sugar until the strawberries are well coated.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The berries are lightly coated in sugar. Mix gently so the slices stay intact.
Let the strawberry mixture sit for about 15 minutes, allowing the strawberries to release their juice and the sugar to dissolve.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Juice collects in the bottom of the bowl and the sugar dissolves. Let the berries sit undisturbed during this stage.
After 15 minutes, add the water to the bowl and stir to combine.
Using a fork or potato masher, gently mash the strawberries to release more of their juice and to create a slightly chunky texture.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The mixture is juicy with visible fruit pieces. Mash gently to keep the texture slightly chunky.
Continue to mash the strawberries until you reach your desired consistency.
Taste the mixture and add more sugar if desired.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The chilled mixture is ready when the flavors have melded. Cover the bowl before refrigerating.
After 30 minutes, remove the bowl from the refrigerator and give the mixture a good stir.
Serve the edible strawberry recipe chilled, garnished with additional sliced strawberries if desired.
