This mm-yeah fruit dessert can be made with either fresh or dried fruit - it masquerades as both a warming winter dessert and a light summer sweet treat.
Fruit Compote (serves 4)
What you need:
225g fresh or dried fruit (apricot, peaches, pears, prunes, figs...)
300ml water
1 clove
1 cinnamon stick
grated zest of 1 lemon and 1 orange
What to do:
If using dried fruit, soak overnight in water with clove, cinnamon and zest. The next day, put all ingredients into a saucepan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 30 minutes or until fruit is tender. Remove cinnamon stick and clove.
Chill before serving with yoghurt, ice cream or custard.
