Ingredients

  • 2 x 150g/5½oz pots fat-free natural yoghurt
  • 3 oranges
  • good pinch ground cinnamon
  • 2 star anise
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract
  • 10g/¼ oz unsalted pistachio nuts, roughly chopped (alternatively use toasted flaked almonds

Instructions

  • For the labneh, line a sieve with a single layer of muslin cloth and place over a bowl. Spoon the yoghurt into the sieve and tie up the ends of the cloth. Leave to drain in the fridge overnight.
  • Cut one of the oranges in half and squeeze all the juice – you should end up with 4-5 tbsp. Peel the remaining oranges and cut into thin slices.
  • Pour the juice into a small saucepan and stir in the cinnamon, star anise and vanilla extract.
  • Place over a medium heat and simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the orange slices and warm through gently.
  • Divide the labneh between two small dishes. Top with the warm spiced oranges and juice and scatter the nuts on top.
