Instruction

  • Wash the apricots and both raisins and place in a bowl - cover with cold water to 5cm above the fruit
  • Put the walnuts, pistachos and almonds in another bowl or pan and add boiling water
  • Leave to soak, and then peel off all the skins as they soften
  • This is a fiddly job and make take some time - but it's definitely worth the effort! Throw away the water
  • Combine the fruits with the nuts and cherries, including the juice they have been soaking in
  • Add the rose water, cover the mixture and leave in the fridge to rest for two days
  • When you leave the mix, the juice will become sweeter and syrupy, giving the dish a really unique consistency
  • To serve, spoon the fruit, nuts and juice into individual bowls or cups, and enjoy!
