It's the season for strawberries and what better way to eat them than in cream tarts.

Some of the fondest childhood memories I have are of picking fresh strawberries at a quaint little farm on the outskirts of London. Red, luscious and bursting with flavour, strawberries instantly became my favourite fruit.

Years later, on a trip to Mahabaleshwar, I was reminded of the farm-fresh strawberries. I was astonished to see how shiny and flavourful these heart-shaped berries were. That's when I said a little prayer of gratitude for living in Mumbai, which is so close to the source of world- class strawberries.

I'm so enamoured of strawberries that I even pack my freezer with boxes of pureed strawberries to fulfil my off-season cravings.
