How to make
Pour the cherries into a bowl and add the sugar and water.
Put it on medium heat and leave it to boil, so that the fruit can release more morello cherry syrup they need 20-30 minutes.
To prepare our thickener, grab a saucepan and put 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 3 tablespoons of cornstarch and carefully dissolve the starch in the juice with a fork.
Place it on the stove and boil it over medium-low heat for about 2-3 minutes, so that the mixture turns into a thick cream.
When a foam forms when boiling the fruit, that's when the cherries have released all their juice.
Here it is time to add the thickener and mix well.
Leave it to boil over high heat for about ten minutes, by stirring at all times.
Remove it from the heat and blend.
Grab a strainer and pass the topping through it and use the help of a spoon.
Pour the finished morello cherry topping into suitable bottles.
Use this topping when making pastries and desserts.
