Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (300g) fresh rhubarb, diced into ¼ inch pieces
  • 2 cups (300g) fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp (1.5g) salt

Instructions:

  1. Wash the rhubarb and strawberries thoroughly. Chop the rhubarb into small, uniform pieces and quarter the strawberries.
  2. Combine the diced rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a medium saucepan.
  3. Turn the heat to medium and stir occasionally until the mixture reaches a gentle simmer and the sugar dissolves.
  4. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10–12 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until the sauce has thickened to a syrupy consistency and the rhubarb is tender.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
