- Preparation and cooking time
- Total time
- A little effort
- Serves 2
Ingredients
- 100g cherries, stoned
- 50g cherry jam
- 100g strawberries, halved
- 100g raspberries
- 1 tsp (optional) rosewater
- 1 tsp loose leaf earl grey tea
- 1 tbsp icing sugar
- 2-4 depending on size ready-made sweet waffles
- butter 1 tbsp melted
- 2 big spoonfuls clotted cream
Method
- STEP 1
Put the cherries in a small pan with the jam and 2 tbsp water. Heat gently until the jam is melted, then cover and simmer for 2 minutes to start softening the cherries. Add the strawberries, cover and simmer for a further minute. Add the raspberries and simmer for 30 seconds. Turn off, stir in the rosewater, if using, and leave at room temperature.
- STEP 2
Heat your grill. Grind the earl grey tea with the icing sugar using a pestle and mortar. Put the waffles on a baking sheet and brush the tops with half the butter. Sprinkle over half the tea and sugar mixture and grill for about 2 minutes or until golden and crisp. Turn and repeat on the other side.
- STEP 3
Divide the waffles between two plates, spoon over the compote and the clotted cream.
