This compote from Elizabeth Baird is very versatile. Serve it for brunch, or serve for dessert with crème fraîche or thick yogurt.

Ingredients

  • 4 cardamom pods
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1/4 cup liquid honey
  • 2 strips lemon peel
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 lb mixed dried fruit, (apricots, prunes, figs, pears and cranberries)
  • 3 large pink grapefruits or red grapefruits

Preparation

Lightly crush cardamom pods and cinnamon stick; place in saucepan along with 1 cup (250 mL) water, honey and lemon peel and juice. Bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add dried fruit; stir to coat. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until puffed and tender, 30 minutes. Transfer to bowl; let cool. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 days.)

Meanwhile, cut off skin and outer membranes of grapefruits. Working over dried fruit mixture to catch juices, cut between membranes and fruit to release sections into bowl; stir gently. Discard cardamom and cinnamon.
