Cherry and Raspberry Compote

Ingredients: 350g (12 oz) cherries, stoned

                    150g (5 oz) caster sugar

                     Juice of 1 lemon

                     150g (12oz) raspberries

                     Greek yogurt, to serve         

1. Pour 4 tablespoons of water into a pan and add the cherries, sugar and lemon juice. Place the pan on a medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Cook the cherries over a low heat for about 5-10 minutes, until they have released some juices but aren’t overcooked.

2. Add the raspberries to the pan and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, until they have started to soften. Remove the pan from the heat and leave the mixture to cool, then chill it well before serving with Greek yogurt.

Tip: Freezing the compote isn’t recommended, but the mixture may be kept in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.
