Italian Apricot Mostardo
6 x Tablespoons sugar
2 x Cups x Apricots - cut into quarters
1 x Tablespoon olive oil
1 x Teaspoon Dijon mustard - or to your taste
1/2 x Cup white wine vinegar
1/4 x Teaspoon crushed chilli flakes
Salt to your taste or special diet
In a medium hot pot add the olive oil then add the vinegar and sugar and bring to a simmer, stir until the sugar is dissolved - about 3-4 minutes then whisk in the mustard and chilli flakes.
Next add in the apricots and simmer for around 15 minutes until the apricots have plumped up and the sauce is syrupy.
When fully cooled transfer the Mostardo to sealed glass jars and refrigerate.
