Hunza Apricots With Thick Yoghurt Recipe

Hunza apricots are apricots which are dried without preservatives.

They are therefore brown in colour instead of orange.

They have a wonderful flavour and a natural sweetness.

Put apricots into a medium sized saucepan and cover generously with water.

Leave to soak overnight if possible.

Then simmer the fruit over a gentle heat, without lid on the saucepan until fruit is tender and the has reduced to a syrup.

Serve hot or cold, with the yogurt.
