Apple, pear & cherry<br />
compote<br />
Ingredients<br />
8 eating apples<br />
, peeled, cored and cut into chunks<br />
4 medium Bramley apples<br />
, peeled, cored and cut into chunks<br />
8 firm pears<br />
, peeled, cored and thickly sliced<br />
6 tbsp sugar<br />
, or to taste<br />
280g dried sour cherries<br />
(or dried cranberries)<br />
Method<br />
Put the apples and pears in a pan with the<br />
sugar and 50ml water. Bring to a simmer,<br />
then gently cook, covered, for 15 mins or<br />
so until the Bramley apple has collapsed to<br />
a purée and the eating apple and pear are<br />
tender (stir to make sure it doesn’t catch on<br />
the bottom). Stir in the cherries or cranberries<br />
for 1 min, taste and add a little more<br />
sugar if necessary. Can be chilled for 3-5<br />
days. Serve with vanilla ice cream, if you<br />
like. See 'Goes well with' for ideas for using<br />
up the compote.<br />
