  • Then you are going to extract the juices from 2 oranges, which you must have previously washed and disinfected. Once this is done, you add the orange juice in a bowl or container, where you will also place the apple and the quince, so that they soften, for about 10 minutes
  • Then you will need a pot, in which you will place the quince and the apple along with 2 cups of water, if you see that there is very little liquid, you can add a little more water and there will be no problem. You place it over medium heat, and let it boil for 5 minutes.
  • Once the cooking time has passed, you are going to pass the fruits through a strainer to remove the liquid and preserve the pulp
  • The next thing you are going to do is that you are going to take the pulp to the blender and you are going to add the orange juice that you had used to soften the fruit, then blend well until it is like a mush.
  • And you are going to strain what you have blended again, to eliminate fibers and seeds, but if it is to your liking there is no problem if you do not want to strain it.
  • You will place this mixture back in the pot and you will add 50 grams of sugar, and you will boil for about 5 to 8 minutes, stirring constantly with the help of a wooden spoon or with a common spoon.
  • Once the cooking process is finished, the hot compote must be poured into the container or jar, (this is very important) and ready to taste your delicious dessert.

Tips for making a delicious mixed fruit compote

Well remember to buy and use fresh fruits in good condition for the compote, since when it comes to fruit, its flavor will depend on the state in which it is, and more if we talk about a compote.

Sometimes fruits come with a certain concentration of sugar, which sometimes makes it unnecessary to add sugar to the compote. Or, on the contrary, you can add a little more sugar to your liking, there will be no problem.

The compotes can be made with any other type of fruit, but always remember not to use too many, as it could have a strange and unpleasant taste.

If you wish or you see that your compote is very dry and you like it juicier, you can add a little more orange juice, in this case, try to make the juice a little sweeter than acidic.

Cinnamon also gives it a more intense flavor, a small spoonful would do it very well.
