    With vanilla icecream instead of creme

    So delicious! I gave it 20 mins at 190 fan (I was cooking something else at the same time) and only had 500g so adjusted the amount of the rest of the ingredients to fit. I accidentally added some lemon zest too as I misread the recipe. I only added a splash of water as the other comments said it made loads of syrup and I think I could have got away with none as there was still loads! So tasty and definitely one to make again, it was the perfect way to use up my just about to turn strawberries.

    Sumac

    I thought this was just ok. I might make again following previous commenters advice to use less water and less sugar. I didn't do the yogurt part of the recipe, just added the strawberries to some lightly sweetened greek yogurt, so it was very quick and easy. I will be playing around with strawberries and sumac again though - the brightest part of this recipe is that flavor combo!

    I enjoyed this a lot but would definitely double the amount of strawberries next time

    Wow, this is completely delicious. I never would have thought to combine sumac and strawberries but they are great together. I didn’t bother draining the yogurt or adding the cream, but I would next time so it doesn’t get too watery from the berry juices.

    This is one of my favorite recipes. The cream isn't really necessary, but the mint and the lemon zest really make a difference. It's good over unsweetened yogurt (drained or not). I usually add less water when roasting the strawberries because I like the syrup to be thicker.

    I’m seriously in love with this dish! I’ve made it twice in the last 2 weeks. I added a dash (1/2 tsp) of rosewater the second time and it worked well. Served it with almond bread and it benefited from the crunch. I’m going to make this again and again even if I serve it with ordinary yougurt or even ice cream.

    I just made the strawberries, not the strained and sweetened yoghurt. Next time I would reduce the sugar in the strawberries too, because they really didn’t need that much (I used 60g). This was excellent served with plain, unsweetened Greek yoghurt.

    I took a few liberties with this recipe--I didn't bother straining the yogurt and didn't have mint or a vanilla bean. The sumac-strawberry combination is really good!

    Surprisingly delicious. Two small tweaks. Start draining the yogurt much earlier to get it really thick (the recipe is too optimistic). And add sugar AFTER yogurt is drained
