1. Put the lemon pieces into a food processor or blender with the sugar and pulse-chop until the lemon and sugar have combined to a purée. Tip the mixture into a bowl.
2. Purée the strawberries and add to the lemon mixture. Add about half the lemon juice, taste and add more if necessary - the flavour of the lemon should be intense but not overpower the strawberries.
3. Pour into an ice-cream machine and churn until frozen or freeze in a suitable container. You may need to churn the mixture in batches according to the size of your ice-cream machine.

  My ice cream maker holds 1.5kg and I had to do two batches, so I recommend halving all ingredients if you want to do it in one. Apart from that it was an easy recipe and if you get the ratio of strawberry/lemon right, it's got a really refreshing but sweet taste to it.
