Ingredients

500g strawberries, hulled, halved, quartered if large
2 tablespoons raw sugar or granulated sugar

Method

Toss strawberries and sugar in a large bowl and let sit until berries start to release their juices, 25–30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 185°C. Spread out berries on a rimmed baking sheet lined with a nonstick baking mat and bake, rotating baking sheet about every 30 minutes, until berries are darkened in colour and dried out around the edges but still slightly juicy in the centre, 3–3½ hours. Let cool on the baking sheet.

Berries can be dried 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.
