Ingredients
- 1 quart strawberries, hulled
- 1 ripe mango, peeled and chopped
- sugar, to taste
Directions
- Preheat oven to its lowest setting, somewhere around 150 to 170 degrees.
- Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat.
- Puree the strawberries and mango in a food processor or high-speed blender.
- Taste the puree and add sugar if needed. (Feel free to use more or less than the amount called for.)
- Spread the fruit puree in a thin, even layer on the baking sheets. The puree should not be more than ⅛ thick. (To measure, stick a skewer in the puree and then measure how far up the skewer the puree comes.)
- Dry the puree in the oven until darkened, dry to the touch and pliable, approximately six hours.
- Peel the fruit leather off the Silpat or parchment paper and cut into strips.
- Store in an airtight container.
