How to use leftover dried apricots

Sweet stuffing. Mix chopped dried apricots with finely chopped garlic, fresh breadcrumbs, and chopped fresh rosemary and thyme leaves. Add a beaten egg to bind, season well, then use to stuff a pork loin. Roll up, tie with string and roast.
Fruity chicken. Stir dried apricots, wholegrain mustard and double cream into chicken stock, then add to the pan to braise chicken breasts or thighs.
