I know kate but when i saw them in the market at 2 punnet's for £1 i couldn't resits and to my delight they were spot on on flavour! You know the UK , when is it never in season?

Salaam, we've had strawberries here this month too... from Egypt I think. Oh Somayya... I'm sure that when you do get strawberries they'll taste infinitely better than any other out of season ones though! My daughters like to dip in them in Nutella for a really 'quick fix'! Umm Ibrahim

Assalam-alaikam,
these look yum sis, my sister made something similar one Eid and it was a refreshing change from mithai.

I found two punnets for £1 recently too and they were better than expected. Still, nothing tastes like June's English strawberries...
