- Crush strawberries in a mortar & pestle. Don't go overboard because the sauce looks nicer with a thick texture.

- Place garlic and olive oil in a saucepan and place over medium heat.
- Lightly sautee garlic for five minutes.
- Add the sauce mix to saucepan.
- Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Don't let the sauce boil hard, just simmer.

This is a wonderful sauce for salmon it all works really well together. I love the combination of the strawberries with the herbs and vinegar and then the spice from the chili flakes. The only 2 things I did different was to serve it on a salmon fillet and I also added a pinch of sugar to the sauce. This is something I would never have thought of doing Peter and especially not to go with salmon but it really works so well. I served ours over salad garnished with some extra strawberries and it made for a superb dinner. Cheers Peter.

I enjoyed this dish the other night, and I must say it was fabulous. The only thing if anything I would change would be to try it with a salmon fillet instead o f a steak. The mix of flavors were wonderfully textured and tasty. I would certainly prepare this for my family and/or company. I especially enjoyed the subtle but aromatic flavors in the strawberry sauce. It isn't often that you think of fruit and fish in this particular way. I would recommend trying this dish to anyone who enjoys fish.

Delicious! I served this last night to my family and a friend, Kymber _71, who all really enjoyed it! They commented on the "strawberry sauce - loving the combination of flavors!" It really works well together and compliments the salmon. I could only get small, Sockeye Salmon but it was grat. Next time I think we will try a Pacific salmon fillet withthe sauce. ;) **Made for Aussie Tag Feb 2008**

<p>I live close Hobart in Tasmania, a wonderful part of Australia but a little chilly in winter so be sure to book your holiday for summer! I'm self-employed in the embedded electronics area and being at home most of the day gives me plenty of time to prepare those recipes with long preparation and cooking times. As most of my clients are either interstate or overseas I get to occasionally catch up with them and enjoy their local restaurants, always nice to have someone else paying the bills! <br /> <br />As well as food I'm partial to the odd beer & wine, so often like to go to a local pub and catch some local bands. No need for an alarm clock in the morning, my cat Molly likes her breakfast at 8:00AM sharp and makes an effective alarm! Lately I've been starting to get into some digital photography so you might be seeing a few additional recipe shots on Zaar... <br /> <br /><a href=http://www.satsleuth.com/VisitorMap/stats.php?id=vUa1ya8Z> <br /><img src=http://www.satsleuth.com/VisitorMap/globes/Globe_vUa1ya8Z.gif alt= /></a></p>
