Apricots
My Oddbox came last night and includes a bag of apricots. Anyone have any tasty recipes?
Re: Apricots
i would just gorge myself on them as they are - when they are good they're one of my favourite fruit.
Re: Apricots
I have a nice recipe for apricot chutney if that's any help? But I'm with Scully....

Me too, I love apricots
If they need cooking I make a fried egg flan - a pastry or retro sponge case filled with crème patissiere and topped with poached or even canned apricot halves
Re: Apricots
Cut in half , put a little brown sugar and butter in each half then roast and serve with Greek yoghurt , honey and pistachios

Re: Apricots
All of the above but my favourite crumble is apricot too. Perhaps reconstituted dried ones should be reserved for that as decent fresh ones are so rarely found in these parts and deserve to be just eaten.

Re: Apricots
How about grilling the apricot halves, and stuffing them with paté?
Or I´ve got a T & T recipe for apricot chutney which Joan used to love.

Two apricot cakes on my blog, both of them delicious.

I'd also recommend a tart with a frangipane and fruit filling.
However, if you don't feel like baking, poaching them (if they need it) and eating with cream or natural yogurt and a sprinkling of granola makes an acceptable alternative to a crumble, in the summer. Or add the cooked fruit to a trifle. Or make a fool.

Re: Apricots
Thanks all. As ever I am stifled by his prejudices. He doesn’t do yogurt or anything custardy. I think a crumble with ice cream (which although custardy he deigns to partake of) will be the way forward although Suelle’s cakes might get a look in if the family come.

Re: Apricots
The apricot season has finished here, we usually eat them raw. Most years I freeze some for winter crumbles but last weeks freezer disaster means no Apricot Crumbles this year

Re: Apricots
I’ve made divine apricot curd. It’s incredibly easy in the microwave.
