Steps:
- Put the cherries into a wide, deep frying pan, add 150ml water, then bring to the boil. Cook for 15 mins, stirring now and again until the fruit is starting to soften. Tip in the sugar, stir until it dissolves, add the lemon juice and brandy, then bring back to the boil.
- Cook for 15 mins until the fruit has collapsed a little and the sauce is syrupy, smooth and dark purple. Spoon a little of the juice onto a saucer and leave to cool for 30 secs. Push it with your finger; it's ready if the syrup wrinkles. Ladle into sterilised jars (see tip, below) and seal.

SUPER DUPER EASY CHERRY COMPOTE
Not as bad for you as you might think. Also quick because you're using frozen cherries! Please get the ones frozen WITHOUT sugar. The whole point of this is controlling how much sugar we feed our families. Plus it's tasty. Serve cold with your favorite meat or pastry or puddings, or serve piping hot over ice cream or fresh cake.
