Whipped ricotta and mascarpone with honey thyme apricots

  • Julia Platt Leonard

I've been back in the kitchen this week, working on upcoming recipes including this one for The Independent. It's incredibly simple and not too sweet, which is a plus when cooking with really ripe fruit like these apricots. Apricots are a tough one because they can look absolutely gorgeous but be a bit wooly on the inside. But get them when they're just ripe (I look for ones that come from Italy) and they're a dream. Some butter, honey and sprigs of lemon thyme and you're done. Recipe will be on the Indy website 21 June.
