Note

For best texture, ensure the kiwifruit are ripe but still firm so they hold their shape in the compote.

This compote can be made up to 24 hours in advance. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

If the fruit is very tart, consider adding a tablespoon of honey or sugar before mixing.

Great served over yogurt, oatmeal, or as a sauce for grilled fish or poultry.
