What you need
What you need
  • 400g apricot, pitted and diced
  • 80g sugar
  • 1 lemon
  • A handful of thyme sprigs
  • 6-7 large sourdough slices, cut in half
  • Olive oil, for brushing
  • 3 Primula Original Cheese tubes
  • Fresh mint leaves, to garnish
  • Pistachios, chopped, to garnish
How you do it
How you do it
  • Combine the apricots, sugar, lemon zest, ¼ lemon juice and thyme leaves in a large pan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, occasionally stirring as the sugar dissolves.
  • Allow the mixture to come to a full rolling boil. Gently simmer for 30 minutes stirring frequently and removing the white foam occasionally.
  • Cool the apricot in a glass tray and cover the surface with clingfilm to prevent air contact. Set aside to cool.
  • Set out a frying pan on the stove to medium-high heat. Pour some olive oil directly and add the bread slices for the crostini to the pan once it’s hot. Cook for 2 minutes or until the desired colour.
  • When the crostini are toasted, spread Primula Original Cheese generously on top of each crostini, add the homemade compote, and garnish with fresh mint and pistachios.
