Berry Compote

Ingredients

• 200g fresh or frozen raspberries
• 150g fresh or frozen blueberries
• 100g fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled and halved
• Zest and juice of ½ lemon
• 2 tbsp water (only if using fresh berries)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

Method

1. 1Place all the berries in a saucepan over medium heat.
2. 2Add lemon zest, lemon juice, water (if using fresh berries), vanilla, and salt.
3. 3Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes until the berries have broken down and released their juices.
4. 4Gently mash some of the berries with the back of a spoon for a thicker texture, leaving some whole.
5. 5Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly - the compote will thicken as it cools.
6. 6Serve warm or cold. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
