Preheat the oven 200°C/400°F/gas 6.

Halve and destone the apricots, then lay them in a snug-fitting roasting tray.

Halve the vanilla pod, scrape the seeds into the tray and throw in the pod.

Use a speed peeler to zest in 1 orange, then squeeze in the juice from both oranges.

Sprinkle over the sugar, add a splash of water and toss everything together.
