Peaches with almonds and vanilla


Peaches this time of year in the UK are delicious. Soft and juicy and the fragrance fills your nose when eating them. They are summer on a plate.
This dish is maximum nutrition and flavour for minimum effort which is what this blog is about.
Method
Cut a peach in two and then slice it. Put the cut side down on the cutting board do not try and cut it towards you into your hand.
Put the slices on a plate. The photo on the left is half a peach. Drizzle over the top vanilla extract. Its brown and sticky and has the seeds in it. Vanilla essence is a substitute but is not quite the same. Top with ground almonds and serve with creme fraiche.
Coming soon.....a dish that can be a summer salad or main course
