Fancy making dessert on the barbecue? Juicy fresh peaches intensify in flavour as you cook them over the coals, the flesh turning beautifully soft and the charred lines adding caramelised depth.

Method
- Cut the madeira cake lengthways into 3 long slices, then cut each slice in half widthways. Transfer to a baking tray, sprinkle with the rosewater,= then set aside to infuse.
- Meanwhile, halve the peaches and remove the stones. Brush the cut sides with oil, then cook on the barbecue grill, cut-side down, for 3-4 minutes until lightly charred. Turn, sprinkle with a little sugar and cook for another 3-4 minutes until tender. Brush the cake slices with a little oil too, then warm these on the grill for 1 minute on each side.
- Meanwhile, toast the chopped pistachios in a small saucepan or roasting tin on the barbecue. Set aside to cool.
- To serve, top each slice of madeira cake with some yogurt, 2 peach halves, some pistachios and a good drizzle of honey.
