Indian dessert of dried apricots cooked to a syrup and served with the kernels.
Ingredients:
20 whole, dried apricots
160g sugar
Method:
Wash the apricots, place in a bowl, cover with 500ml water and set aside to soak over night.
The following day, remove the pits from the apricots, crack the pits and remove the kernels. Set these aside.
Combine the apricot flesh and their soaking water in a pan. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 15 minutes over medium heat then mash the flesh as best as you can.
Stir in the sugar and continue cooking until the mixture thickens. Stir in the kernels, cook for 5 minutes more then take off the heat.
This makes an excellent topping for ice cream. It can also be served with cream or custard.
