Apricot Porridge (v)

Bored with the usual plain porridge, apricots make a nice addition and boost the iron content :)

For one person you need:
1/3 cup oats
2/3 cup soya milk
3-4 dried apricots, chopped roughly

Place everything in a pan over a gentle heat and stir till thickened. Eat. Fill fortified.

Baked Apricots with Almond Ricotta

This is a speedy midweek pudding a la Jamie...

For 2-3 people you need:
1 tin apricot halves in juice
1 tub ricotta
1 tsp almond extract
1 egg
4-5 amaretti biscuits
1 tbsp vanilla sugar

Drain the apricots and lay in an ovenproof gratin dish. Mix together the sugar, ricotta and almond extract with the egg. Mix till smooth. Pour over the apricots and then top with crumbled biscuits. Bake in a hot oven for 20 mins.
