Notes
Ingredients:

- The cornflour is optional, however if you are using it as a topping for cheesecake it's highly recommended. It will thicken the sauce and help keep it in place on the cheesecake.
- You can freeze this compote but it is not suitable for home canning.
- It will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.
- For extended shelf life freeze in ice cub trays. Once frozen transfer to an airtight container and freeze for up to three months.
