Method
- Pour 4 tbsp water into a pan and add the cherries, sugar and lemon juice. Place the pan over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Cook the cherries over a low heat for about 5-10 mins, until they have released some juices but aren’t overcooked.
- Add the raspberries to the pan and cook for a further 1-2 mins, until they’ve started to soften. Remove the pan from the heat and leave the mixture to cool, then chill it well before serving with Greek yogurt.
Top Tip for making Cherry and raspberry compote
Freezing the compote isn’t recommended, but the mixture may be kept in the fridge for 4 to 5 days.
