Apricots with syrup

Sweet maple syrup and roasted and salted almonds add heaps of flavour to this fruity dessert.

Ingredients

6 Tbsp (90ml) butter
12 halved apricots
125ml maple syrup
1 vanilla pod
100g roughly chopped roasted and salted almonds
clotted cream

Method

Heat 2 Tbsp of the butter in a frying pan and fry the apricots until lightly coloured. Place the maple syrup, 4 Tbsp butter and vanilla pod in a separate pot and allow to infuse for approximately 5 minutes. Serve the apricots drizzled with the syrup and garnished with chopped almonds and a dollop of clotted cream.

Cook’s note: The clotted cream is from Jenny’s, winner of the 2012 Eat In DStv Food Network Produce Award for the Best Small Producer: Dairy/Other.
