Strawberry compote
✔150g strawberries
✔20g caster sugar
✔2g NH pectin

Place the diced strawberries in a saucepan. Cook over a low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the mixture sticking to the bottom of the pan. Increase the heat, add the sugar and pectin mixture and cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, set aside to cool slightly and pour into your frame. Place in a cool place.
