Ingredients

  • 1 pound (500 g) dried apricots or prunes, pitted
  • Water to just cover fruit
  • 1.5 ounces (50 g) granulated or caster sugar, or more, to taste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 0.66 ounces (20 g) ground nuts, almonds for apricots, walnuts for prunes, opt.

Directions

  1. 1
    Cover fruit in saucepan with water. Simmer for 10-15 minutes without letting all the water evaporate or the Lekvar will burn. Add more water if necessary.
  2. 2
    Once fruit is soft add sugar, lemon juice and ground nuts, if using, and cook until thick and puree. If the Lekvar is runny continue to cook a minute or two more.
  3. 3
    Lekvar will keep for months in a covered jar in the refrigerator or can be frozen.
