Method

Take 1 punnet of the large strawberries and purée with the caster sugar and vanilla seeds. Sieve the sauce. Taste and add more sugar if necessary.

Pour some of the strawberry sauce into the bottom of 4 serving dishes. Arrange the rest of the fruit on top of the purée and scatter over the mint.

Pour the cava over each bowl of fruit at the table and allow to fizz about. Serve imme
