NOTES : Apricots are really versatile fruit. They blend well with both sweet and savoury ingredients, and besides this, have a high fibre content.

In this dish, the tartness of the puree blends well with the ''creaminess'' of the fromage frais, to make a dessert which tastes as if it were really rich - you will need only a small helping! Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
