Step by step recipe
- 1: Choose good quinces.
- 2: Peel the fruit, then cut into quarters and remove the hard core.
You will notice that the fresher the quinces, the harder they are to peel, and harder still to cut out the core. But I assure you, quince compote is worth the effort! - 3: Slice the quince quarters (a mandolin is ideal for this) and put in a large pan.
- 4: Add 4 tablespoons water, the juice of 1 lemon and 80 g caster sugar.
- 5: Put on low heat, cover and leave to stew gently (stir once or twice during cooking).
- 6: Once the quince slices are soft, blend to give a smoother texture.
Taste to check if the compote is sweet enough. - 7: Your quince compote is ready.
Remarks
You can also add the lemon zest in with the juice, as its flavour goes really well with quinces.
