Hi David,
That is something we haven't got to yet. The main thing is to use the wrist during the stroke. Drop your wrist to get the ball to curve left to right and lift your wrist to get the ball to curve right to left. Try to keep the rest of your stroke similar to a normal topspin.
We will try to make a video on this in the next few months.

Strawberry Flick
The strawberry flick is the opposite of the banana flick and involves utilising the wrist to get the ball spinning with topspin and sidespin. Used in conjunction with the banana flick it can be very deceptive. The banana flick is a more reliable stroke and that's why you see more top players using it over the strawberry flick.
