Prunes Stuffed with Walnuts in Orange Juice

1. 1

   Make the hole in each prune a little wider with your finger and stuff each with a walnut half.

2. 2

   Put them in a pan, cover with orange juice, and simmer over low heat for 2030 minutes, or until they are soft, adding a little water if they become too dry.

3. 3

   Serve chilled as they are, or with the topping.

4. 4

   For the optional topping, whip the cream until it thickens, and add sugar and rose water.

5. 5

   Pour all over the prunes and chill together before serving, or pass round in a bowl for people to help themselves.

6. 6

   Instead of orange juice, use a half-and-half mixture of water and red wine.
