An easy old-fashioned dessert that's ideal for those cold nights. It starts with dried fruit (whatever you have at home) and plumps them up with tea along with the flavour of orange rind, cinnamon and cloves. One of my all-time favs.

1. Place apricots, prunes, apple rings, peaches, raisins, figs, cloves, cinnamon and rind in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add tea or water; cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours. Top up with a little more tea if all the water is absorbed - there should be enough to create a little liquid when it's ready.
2. Before serving, remove cloves, cinnamon and rind from compote. Serve topped with a dollop of yoghurt and sprinkle over a few almond.
