Categories: Desserts, Fruits
     Yield: 6 servings

     1 pt Strawberries, hulled
     1 ea Juice of 1/2 lemon
     1 x  Water
   1/2 c  Granulated sugar
     1 tb Cornstarch
     6 ea Kiwis
     3 ea Bananas

 Place strawberries in blender with lemon juice and 1/4 cup water.
 (Thawed unsweeted strawberries could be substituted).  Blend until
 smooth.  Press through fine strainer into medium-sized saucepan.
 (Sauce foams as it cooks, so you will need the extra space).  Add
 sugar to mixture; bring to a boil.  Lower heat; simmer 5 minutes.  Mix
 cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water; stir into mixture 1 to 2 minutes
 or until thickened.  Remove from heat.  Cool and chill. Just before
 serving, peel kiwis and bananas.  Place several tablespoons for
 strawberry mixture in corner of each dessert plate.  Slice 1 kiwi and
 half a banana into overlapping semicircles around each pool of sauce.
 (If you have any strawberry mixture left over, it's delicious on ice
 cream).
