Ingredients 80g good-quality granola or pistachios 30g butter 6-10 plums, depending on size, halved and destoned 20g golden caster sugar 60ml Madeira, brandy or sweet sherry 280ml double cream 1-2 tbsp runny honey 350ml natural yoghurt A couple of sprigs of fresh mint Method Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 160°C fan/gas mark 4. If using pistachios, pour them on to a tray and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, until they are toasted and crunchy but not burnt. Put a wide frying pan on a medium-high heat and add the butter. When it begins to foam, swirl it around, then add the plums, cut side down. They should fill the pan. Sprinkle over the sugar and let it gently sizzle so that the plums release their juice, then pour in the Madeira. Before the plums get too soft, turn them over to cook the other side. The ideal is to end up with a beautiful, thick sauce and plums that still hold their shape but are soft and delicious. Add a splash of water if the sauce gets too thick. You need enough for each person to get a spoonful. While the plums are cooking, pour the cream into a large bowl. Whip it until it is light and voluptuous but still has a nice movement to it. When it is ready, drizzle in a tablespoon of honey and add the yoghurt. Gently fold together and have a taste; you can add a touch more honey if you like. Crush the toasted pistachios, if using, and roughly chop the mint leaves. Spoon a generous dollop of the cream into a bowl and make a crater in the middle. Add two or three warm plum halves and a spoon of the sauce, then top with the granola or pistachios and mint.
