Introduction
This is a very nice and fresh summer dessert. I love apricots, and this is one of the favorites desserts of mine.
Ingredients
1 lb large, ripe apricots
3/4 lb strawberries
2 oranges
4 oz sugar
1/4 cup prosecco  wine  (any sparkling white wine will do)

 
Directions
Step: 1Wash, halve and remove pits from the apricots
Grate the zest of an half of one of the orange
Juice the oranges
Dissolve the sugar in the wine and the juice of the oranges
Put the apricots and the juice in a large saucepan and let cook on low for about 10 minutes
Remove apricots from the saucepan and let cool
Step: 2Carefully wash and hull the strawberries. Puree  with an immersion mixer  or a blender.
Pour strawberries puree into the saucepan containing the poaching liquid from the apricots and let simmer  on very low heat  until reduced to a thick creamy sauce.
If desires, lay the apricots on a dollop of sweetened whipped cream
Step: 3Spoon the sauce over the apricots and chill in the fridge for at least two hours before serving.
