Steps:
- To prepare the fruit: If you're using fresh strawberries or peaches, cut them into thin slices. If you're using small berries like blueberries or raspberries, you can use them whole. If you're using frozen fruit, no need to defrost or slice them before using.
- In a medium saucepan, combine your fruit of choice, sweetener of choice and dash of salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. This will take about 5 minutes for fresh fruit or 10 minutes for frozen fruit.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium. If you're using chunky fruit or prefer a smoother consistency, mash the fruit with a potato masher or serving fork until it reaches your desired consistency. Continue simmering, stirring often, until the compote has condensed to about half of its original volume, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the compote from the heat. I'm generally satisfied with my compote at this point, but if the compote isn't sweet enough for your liking, you can stir in a more sweetener, to taste. If you'd like it to be more smooth, mash it some more.
- Let the compote cool for a few minutes before serving. Allow leftover compote to cool completely before covering and refrigerating for up to 10 days.

INDIVIDUAL FRUIT PIES
These little pies are filled with a luscious fruity mix, spiked with a little alcohol. They remind me of the fruit pies my Nan used to make: a real treat, especially when served warm with whipped cream. I've given you three fillings to choose from; each uses the full quantity of pastry.

Steps:
- For the sweet shortcrust pastry, mix the flour and icing sugar together in a bowl. Add the butter and rub it in lightly with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Alternatively, do this in a food processor or a mixer and then transfer to a bowl.
- In a separate bowl or jug, mix the egg with the lemon juice and two tablespoons of water. Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture and pour in the egg mix. Using a table knife, work the liquid into the flour to bring the pastry together. If it seems too dry, add a splash more water. When the dough begins to stick together, use your hands to gently knead it into a ball. Wrap in cling film and rest in the fridge for at least 15 minutes.
- To make any of the fillings, first cut the fruit into 1cm/½in pieces.
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan or deep saucepan set over a medium heat. Add the fruit, sugar, lemon zest (if applicable) and the alcohol. Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring from time to time, until the fruit is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Leave the fruit mix to go cold, mix in the mascarpone (if applicable), then chill the mixture.
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry to a thickness of 2-3mm. Using an 8.5cm/3½in plain cutter, cut out 12 circles and use them to line a bun tray (the kind you would use for fairy cakes, not a deep muffin tray). Re-roll the pastry as necessary and cut out 12 smaller circles, 6cm/2½in in diameter, for the lids.
- Spoon the fruit filling into the pastry cases, taking care not to overfill them. Dampen the rim of the pastry with a little water and top each pie with a lid. Press a smaller cutter over the pie to seal the edge and trim away any excess pastry. Make a couple of small steam holes in the top of each pie.
- Brush the pastry lid with a little milk and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and golden-brown.
- Leave to cool in the tin for five minutes before removing. Serve warm or at room temperature, within 24 hours of baking (or they'll start to lose their crispness).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Set aside.
- Place the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and roll to 1/8-inch thick. Cut 12 (3 3/4- inch) circles from the puff pastry. If the dough begins to stick, lightly dust with flour.
- Place 2 teaspoons of the fruit compote onto the middle of each circle. Lightly brush the edges with the egg wash and fold the pastry over so that the edges meet. Using a fork, press the edges together to seal. Brush the tops of the pies with the egg wash and poke several holes in the top of the pies for steam to escape.
- Place the pies 1-inch apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake until golden brown, approximately 25 minutes.

- If using fresh fruit rinse the fruit and remove the pits (if applicable) then place the fruit in a large pan/saucepan. If using large fruit, such as peaches, remove the pits and chop into chunks before cooking. Add the sugar and cook over a medium heat for about 6 minutes (add 2 more minutes is using frozen fruit) stirring often. The fruit will soften and release lots of juice.
- Bring to the boil and cook for a couple of minutes. Stir gently so the fruit keeps its shape.Add more sugar to taste at any point during cooking if needed.
- Remove from the heat and serve immediately or wait for the sauce to cool before serving. See Serving Suggestions in post.
