Ingredients
- 150 ml water
- 55 gm caster sugar
- 25 gm stem ginger in syrup
- 1 lrg orange
- 2 x eating apples
- 2 x slightly under ripe pears
- 115 gm green grapes preferably seedless
- 1 lrg sprig fresh or possibly 1 tsp dry thyme
Directions
- Heat the water sugar and a couple of Tbsp. of syrup from the stem ginger jar together in a pan and bring to the boil to make a clear syrup.
- Peel the orange and slice it across the grain into rounds 5mm thick remove any pips.
- Cut each apple in half remove the cores and quarter.
- Cut the pears in half lengthways remove the cores and cut into quarters.
- Remove the grapes from their stalks and if they have seeds halve and de pip them.
- Put the apples and pears into the syrup and simmer for 5 min.
- Add in the thyme (if it's dry put it in a muslin bag so which you can retrieve it without it coating the fruit).
- Add in the orange slices and continue to simmer for another 5 min.
- Slice the pcs of stem ginger as thinly as you can add in these to the pan along with the grapes and simmer for 5 min more.
- Pour into a shallow gratin dish or possibly similar china or possibly glass container remove the thyme and allow the mix to cold a little before eating.
- This is a simple autumn compote flavoured with thyme and ginger unexpected as a combination for fruit but marvellously effective nonetheless. You can refrigeratethis compote but perhaps best of all eat it while it's still hot.
