Stone Fruit Glaze and Dip (or Sauce and Compote)

Preperation time:  20 mins.  Cooking time:  5 mins.  Serves:  6

We had eight for Xmas and these pictures reflect a little over exuberance!  It ended up being sufficient for at least double, which turned out just as well for the left over Xmas ham.  The oranges were particularly juicy and I ended up reducing the sauce for about half an hour.  All turned out well in the end.  An excellent replacement for the traditional gravy or apple sauce.

Ingredients

4 Peaches
2 Nectarines
1 Tbs fresh Fennel
1 Garlic Clove
Splash of Oil
1 Tbs Pomegranate Molasses
1 Orange (Juiced)
Handful of fresh Mint
Pinch of Salt

Method

  • Slice 4 peaches and 2 nectarines.
  • Saute in pan for 3-4 minutes with a tablespoon of fresh fennel, 1 crushed garlic clove and a splash of oil.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of pomegranate molasses, the juice of one orange, a handful of mint and a pinch of salt to pan.
  • Stir all ingredients together for 1 minute.

Serve sauce with your favorite meat as a sweet sauce alternative.
