Strawberry syrup

4 cups diced fresh strawberries
½-¾ cup sugar, depending on your taste
½ cup water
1 tsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp cornstarch
3 Tbsp water

Add strawberries to a medium saucepan. Set heat to medium high. Add sugar, water and lemon juice. Once the water is boiling, start mashing the strawberries with a masher. Stir occasionally until strawberries are broken down and sauce has thickened slightly.

In a small cup combine the cornstarch and water. Remove pan from the heat and stir in the cornstarch mixture. Use immediately or cool and store in an air-tight container. Serve syrup over waffles, pancakes or ice cream.
