1/4 cup milk or cream
1/2 cup fresh sliced strawberries(could be figs or any fresh fruit)
melt butter over low heat, add diced habs (no seeds)
cook and mash the habs for 3-5 minutes, add brown sugar stir constantly until melted, add vanilla and cream
cook stirring constantly until caramel like consistancy.
