1 tablespoon unsalted butter （ melted ，for brushing the pan ）

 

** Home-made sour cream :

~ Mix 200g whipping cream and 2 tbsp lemon juice , in one direction whisk until well combined . Let it sit for 30 minutes , the mixture will become thicken .

 

For the Cheesecake Crust:
10 whole graham crackers   ( broken into pieces )
1 tbsp granulated sugar
5 tbsp unsalted butter （ melted ）

 

For the Fresh Strawberry Topping:
2 boxes strawberries ( hulled and cut into 1/4 inch slices )
1/2 cup granulated sugar
pinch of salt
300ml water
2 tbsp lemon juice

 

Method :

1. Make the Cheesecake Crust  : Preheat oven to 150c . By hand or using a food processor, crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs.  In a medium bowl stir together the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Pour the melted butter into the bowl and use a fork to toss the mixture until it is evenly moistened. Transfer the crumbs to a 9 inch springform pan and press evenly into the bottom of the pan. Bake the crust until it begins to smell toasted and starts to brown around the edges, about 13 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cook while the filling is prepared.  ( Picture 1 )

2. Make the Cheesecake Filling: Increase the oven temperature to 240c  .Beat the cream cheese on medium-low speed for 1 minute. Scrape down the bowl, add 3/4 cup of the sugar and salt and beat on medium-low speed for another 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the remaining  3/4 cup of sugar and beat again on medium-low speed for 1 minute.  ( Picture 2 )

3. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the lemon juice and vanilla, and beat on low speed for 1 minute.  ( Picture  3 )

4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl again , add the egg yolks and beat on medium-low speed for 1 minute. Add the eggs, 2 at a time, beating for about 20 seconds between additions and scraping the bowl between additions. Lastly add in sour cream , beat until smooth .

5. Without touching the crust, brush the sides of the inside of the pan with melted butter. Pour the filling into the pan and bake for 15 minutes. Without opening the oven door, reduce the oven temperature to 120c and continue to bake , about 1 1/2  or 2 hours.  ( Picture 4 )

6. Turn off the oven and leave the cake cool in the oven for 2 hours. Cover loosely with foil and refrigerate overnight.

7. Make the Fresh Strawberry Topping: In a large bowl, toss together the sliced strawberries and the sugar. Let sit for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to combine.  ( Picture 5 )

8. Process 1/2 of the strawberries and water  in a food processor until smooth, about 10 seconds. Place the blended mixture  in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the jam is dark and no longer frothy, about 3 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, then pour over the strawberries and stir to combine for another 5 minutes .

9. To unmold the cheesecake, run a round-bladed knife around the sides of the tin to loosen it from the pan and wrap a hot kitchen towel around the outside of the pan and hold in place for 1 minute. Remove the sides of the pan, then slide a thin metal spatula between the crust and pan bottom to loosen, then slide the cheesecake onto a serving platter . Serve with strawberry sauce .
