Ingredients

  • 4 firm peaches

  • 150g caster sugar

  • 400ml white wine or water

  • 2 slices fresh ginger

  • 2 crisp gingernut biscuits

  • For the butterscotch cream 

  • 200g thick, natural yoghurt

  • 2 tbsp soft, dark sugar

Method

  1. For the peaches

    Combine caster sugar, water and ginger and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer. Cut the peach skin down the natural "cleavage", place in the syrup and simmer for 5-6 minutes or until tender. Remove from the syrup and cool, then return to the cooled syrup until required.

    For the cream

    Place yoghurt in a shallow bowl and sprinkle with sugar. Leave for 15 minutes, then swirl sugar through the yoghurt, leaving streaks. Spoon onto four bowls, and top with a drained peach. Scatter crushed biscuits on top and serve.
