Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n

16 large, ripe apricots<\/p>\n

2 large, unwaxed oranges<\/p>\n

150g dark brown sugar<\/p>\n

1 tsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n

350g white chocolate<\/p>\n

600ml whipping cream<\/p>\n

150g meringue, lightly crushed<\/p>\n

8 sprigs of mint to decorate<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Preparation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Pre-heat the oven to 200\u02daC.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Cut the apricots into quarters and remove their stones. Place them in a large mixing bowl.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. De-zest the oranges then quarter them. Add the zest and orange quarters to the mixing bowl and mix in the\u00a0sugar and vanilla to coat the fruit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Pour the mixture into an oven tray and allow to bake for about 15-20 minutes, until the fruit is golden and slightly caramelised. Once removed, turn down the oven to 160\u02daC.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5. Meanwhile, melt 300g of white chocolate in a bowl over steam.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Take care not to over-whip.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7. Once the fruit has cooled a little, remove the orange quarters and squeeze their juice over the apricots. Discard the squeezed orange.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8. Stir the apricots and return the pan to the oven they are sticky and caramelised.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

9. Mix together the meringue, whipped cream and about half the fruit, then swirl in the melted white chocolate.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

10. Serve in glasses or bowls with the remaining fruit pieces on top, grated white chocolate and decorated with mint.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pair with a bottle of \u00a0Cuv\u00e9e Madame de Ch\u00e2teau Coutet 1995<\/p>\n
