  This was very easy to make but I'm not sure it turned out how it was supposed to and I'm not sure I'd bother again. It seemed to have an awful lot of vinegar in it with the resulting taste being a bit...vinagary!!! I did wonder whether the amount was a misprint. The bobotie that it went with was delicious though.

  My daughter made this at the weekend and served it with tamborine chicken - very good. We added white wine vinegar - perhaps that made a difference (50ml and not 500g as stated above).

  I made this to go with the babootie and yellow rice. I found that it made rather a lot but my friends loved all of it and they went home with the recipes and a spare jar of the apricot. I added a bit more sugar as I thought it was too acidic. It was all very good and I will definately make it again.
