Prunes

You will need:

4 oz. prunes
brewed tea
little lemon peel
1 table spoon brown sugar

Process:

1.       Place and slice the apples, or scrub and cut the rhubarb into 1-inch lengths.

2.       Measure the sugar and water in to a saucepan and stir over a low heat to dissolve the sugar.

3.       Add the prepared fruit, cover with a lid and place over very low heat.  Allow to cook slowly  until the fruit is tender but still whole.

4.       Draw the pan pan off the heat and add a little finely grate lemon rind to apples, (or a pinch of ginger to rhubarb) and set aside to cool.

5.       Spoon into a serving dish and chill until ready to serve.
