Leftover kiwi fruit and satsumas

lovelovinghorses

Hi all

My children were going mad for kiwi fruit and satsumas so when they were on offer I brought quite a lot but as usual that was the kiss of death and they are still waiting to be eaten!

Before they go horrible I want to make the most of them; the kiwi are going soft but the satsumas aren't too bad. What can I make with them, together or separately. I like the idea of preserves so any recipes would be greatly appreciated but what else can I do with them (not smoothies or juices as I have done those and know how to do them )

Thank you x x

Preserves, cakes, cordials; any ideas would be appreciated

For the two together, maybe a nice pavlova? It's about the only time my family eat kiwis!

For the satsumas, maybe substitute them for oranges in a boiled orange cake http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/orangeandalmondcake_72383? Or just juice them and use to make an orange drizzle cake, maybe with caramelised slices of satsuma on top.

The BBC also had an interesting looking recipe for kiwis - http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/kiwifruitswithlimesy_90471

My first thought would be a cheesecake however, a nice meringue with ice cream, topped with the fruit would be nice too.

Might be a good time to try kiwifruit chutney!

satsumas, kiwi fruit, pineapple and grapes are the fruits I use to make a fruit salad. Seems to last longer with these fruits than other softer ones. Would they eat that?

On the abel and cole website they have a recipe for kiwi muffins which always get good reviews on their facebook.

Slice and freeze some kiwi, and separate the satsumas into segments and then open freeze to use instead of ice cubes in fruity summer soft drinks or PIMMS

If you have an open fire or woodburner save the satsuma peel to dry and use as fire lighters

satsuma juice is a nice change from orange

These are all brilliant ideas, thanks so much all of you, you are absolute stars
Seakay do I dry the peels first in the sun or warm place and then keep it in a dry container ready for use on the rayburn?
