This is an unusual combination and utterly irresistible. The strawberries are not too sweet and the citrusy notes of the coriander seed are not assertive, but just right. You could serve the strawberries with mascarpone or even just whipped cream, lightly sweetened. You could even try the strawberries as part of a cheese course.
