BLACK AND RED KIR ROYALE FRUIT SALAD

HOT FRUIT COMPOTE FOR PASSOVER OR ALL YEAR ROUND

Steps:

• Cut the dried fruit into bite size pieces.
• (Some leave it whole because it looks nicer, but I find it hard to eat).
• Place in pot with raisins, sugar if desired, cinnamon stick, lemon juice, fresh orange juice plus zest, 1 cup of orange juice, and water.
• Cover and bring to a boil over high heat and then turn to simmer and let cook slowly for 25-30 minutes or until fruit gets soft.
• Check to make sure the fruit mixture does not get too thick.
• You may have to add extra orange juice or water.
• Remove from heat.
• Stir in brandy.
• Allow to cool at least 2 hours to absorb the liquid.
• Cover and refrigerate.
• Serve warm with slivered almond garnish.
