   Start by preparing the strawberry jam: Wash, hull, and chop the fresh strawberries. In a saucepan, combine the strawberries with the sugar and lemon juice over medium heat.
3. Stir occasionally and simmer for about 20 minutes until the strawberries are soft and the mixture thickens. Remove the jam from the heat and let it cool. For Choux Pastry

   Remove the pan from the heat and let the dough cool slightly. Then, gradually beat in the egg, stirring constantly with a whisk, until you have a smooth, shiny mixture.

   Bake the cream puffs in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 25 minutes until golden brown. Be careful! Do not open the oven door to prevent collapsing. Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and wedge a wooden spoon in between to allow the air to escape.
