Introduction
Rosemary, sage, thyme – I love using them in sweet dishes, and particularly with fruit. Here, rosemary combines with lightly griddled peaches and crisp almonds for an easy end to a late summer party.
Ingredients
3 heaped tbsp | soft light brown sugar |
2 | sprigs of fresh rosemary, leaves finely chopped |
4 | just-ripe to underripe peaches, halved |
2 tsp | orange flower water |
40g | toasted flaked almonds |
crème fraîche, to serve |
Essential kit
You will need: a barbecue.
Method
Mix the sugar and rosemary together and set aside on a plate.
Once your barbecue is ready, dip the cut side of the peaches in the rosemary sugar, then grill the peaches cut side up for 5 minutes. Flip them over and grill for a further 5 minutes, keeping a close eye so the sugar caramelises, rather than burns. (Don’t worry if you lose a bit of sugar to the grill – the peaches will still caramelise beautifully.)
Remove the hot peaches from the grill and arrange on a platter. Scatter over the flaked almonds, sprinkle over the orange blossom water, and serve hot with the crème fraîche alongside.
