Method

Recipe kindly shared by the Tesco Community Cookery School with Jamie Oliver. The recipe has been written to be flexible and scalable up to 50 portions. Note: the fruit weight is for trimmed, prepped fruit.
Chop up all your fruit into similar-sized pieces (no smaller than a strawberry), peeling and coring as necessary, and removing any stones. Leave berries and grapes whole (if using).
Place the fruit and water in a suitably sized pan on a medium heat.
Bring to the boil, then cover and cook until the fruit is soft and the liquid has reduced, stirring occasionally – you want to end up with a fairly thick consistency.
Have a taste and add a little sugar if needed.
Remove from the heat and roughly mash with a potato masher.
Cover and leave to cool a little. Enjoy warm, at room temperature or chilled.
