You start by dicing up the strawberries into small pieces. (about a whole regular container from the grocery store)
Then They go in water with a squeeze of Lemon Juice.
Then you stew them. Mostly covered, until they are very very soft and mushy.
Next you place some plastic over a sheet tray and brush it with olive oil.
Taste it and if you think it could be a lot sweeter add some sugar. And blend some more.
But before you go and add a lot of sugar, keep in mind, that as the fruit leather dries, it will concentrate the natural sugars in the fruit and it will become sweeter on its own.
Pour the mixture on the plastic covered tray.
Then it goes into the oven for what seems like years, but is really just many hours on a very low temperature. So low in fact, that you may need to keep the oven door partly opened.
It will peel right off.
