Preparation
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients for making sweet dried fruit soup.
Step 2
Wash the dried apricots, prunes, and raisins thoroughly. My dried apricots were large, so I cut them in half, while I left the prunes whole.
Step 3
Bring 500 ml / about 2 cups of water to a boil in a pot. Add the dried fruit and bring it back to a boil. Cook the dried fruit at a moderate boil for 10 minutes.
Step 4
If desired, add cinnamon to the soup. It will give a lightly spiced flavor and aroma. Cook the dried fruit until soft. It is best not to overcook it.
Step 5
Dissolve the starch in 50 ml / about 3 tablespoons of water until there are no lumps.
Step 6
To thicken the soup slightly, pour in the starch mixture in a thin stream while the soup is boiling. Stir the soup in circular motions so the starch spreads evenly through the liquid.
Step 7
Immediately, before the starch fully sets, pour the apple juice into the soup and mix.
Step 8
Add sugar to taste and mix.
Step 9
Bring the soup to a boil and immediately remove it from the stove. Let it stand covered for 15 minutes. Fruit soup can be served warm or cooled. Enjoy!
