Moroccan Peaches

Recipe #138326 | 2¼ hours | 10 min prep | add private note

By: Mrs B
Sep 21, 2005

Sifting through my recipe box files for Zaar World Tour 2005, I was surprised to discover that I’ve saved three different recipe articles on Moroccan Cuisine over the years. All from my old favourite; the Sainsbury’s magazine. This one has been lurking un-tested since July 2001. Time to give it an airing! Cooking time is resting time.

SERVES 8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Peel the peaches (dip them in boiling water for a few seconds if the skin is reluctant to come away easily); cut each one in half round the circumference, then twist the halves apart and remove the stones.
  2. 2
    Slice the peaches into a serving bowl, sprinkle with sugar and rosewater then cover the bowl with cling film and refrigerate for 2 hours to let the flavours develop.
  3. 3
    Serve decorated with mint leaves.

Such a simple and tasty recipe. I think my rosewater probably was not a great one as I thought the fragrance and taste were too cloying, but despite that this is a lovely way to add a little something extra to peaches.

    How lucky I am to have discovered this lovely recipe. I have access to wonderful fruit here in Greece and amazing rose water. This recipe used them both to best advantage and just reinforces a firm belief of mine that it is the simple things in life that are the most delicious. The mint leaves are a must! A keeper.

    I’ll have to try this with some homemade rose water...The rose water I found at the store was pretty bad...

    What a simple and cleansing dessert this is after a large Moroccan feast. As fresh peaches were just out of season, I also used drained canned peaches and they were just devine. All my guests wanted the recipe. This was sooo simple and quick to make. You can't go wrong
