Dried Fruit Compote

A true lentil knitting, sandal wearing veggie recipe this one. But it still tastes nice despite that ;-)

For about 6 servings you need:
500g mixed dired fruits (I used apples, apricots, sultanas, raisins, figs)
250ml apple juice
some spices - I used 1 cinnamon stick, 4 cloves and about 6 crushed cardamon pods

Lob everything into a pan, bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 15 mins. Leave with a lid on for another 45 mins or so to let the fruit plump up. Serve au natural or with museli, on top of porridge or with a dollop of natural yogurt if you're not vegan (and vegan yogurt if you are!).
