1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons sugar
For the filling:
1/2 cup crushed walnuts
1/4 cup sugar
Crushed pistachio nuts for garnish
Preheat oven to 180 C/ 350 F. Soak the dried apricots in warm water for 10-15 minutes. Then drain the water. Split open the apricots and stuff each apricot with a spoonful of crushed walnut and sugar mixture and close it up. Slightly grease a baking tray with oil and place the apricots on it. Pour the water over the tray. Place a little butter on the top of each stuffed apricot. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of sugar over the apricots and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Arrange them in a serving dish and sprinkle over some crushed pistachio nuts. This light dessert goes well with some vanilla ice cream or clotted cream.
