Roasted apricots with rose yoghurt

Wed, 11 Feb 2015

This would work well with plums as well but I love the delicate flavour of apricots. The sweetness is enhanced by roasting and is a great way to bring out the flavour if the fruit is a little under ripe. Enjoy this as a comforting breakfast or a warm dessert. A little rose syrup added to thick yoghurt is the perfect accompaniment and gives this fruit an eastern flavour. Sprinkle with a few fresh mint leaves to serve.
