4 Ingredients

Number of servings
6
  • 6 peaches
  • 1 orange rind, finely shredded
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 100mg saffron

Method

Step 1 of 5

Place 6 peaches in a large pan of boiling water for about 1 minute or until the skin splits. Remove with a slotted spoon and refresh in a large bowl of iced water.

Step 2 of 5

Use a small knife to peel away the skin and cut each in half following the natural seam. Twist to separate and remove the stones. Cut each half in half.

Step 3 of 5

Stir 2 cups water, 1 cup caster sugar, finely shredded rind of 1 orange and a good pinch of saffron in a saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high and bring to the boil.

Step 4 of 5

Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes or until thickened and syrupy. Cool for 10 minutes.

Step 5 of 5

Place peaches into a clear, sterilised, sealable jar or container and pour over the syrup. Seal and keep refrigerated for 2 weeks.
