Instructions

  1. Peel and core the fruit, cut into pieces and cook in a little white wine until soft. Then puree the fruit.
  2. When the mass has cooled down, add the egg yolks and the saffron dissolved in a little water. Then add a little cinnamon, coriander and cardamom. (If you don`t like it that hearty, you can use two tablespoons of rice flour as a substitute for two of the six eggs.) Then the compote is brought to the boil again, divided into bowls and allowed to cool.
  3. To serve, make a mixture of sugar, cinnamon, coriander and cardamom and sprinkle with the compote. Finally pour melted butter over it.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
