Uses for over-ripe Sharon Fruits

[WendyS]

Couldn't resist a "good deal" from the market stall. Now I have lots of over-ripe Sharon fruit to use up quickly. Anybody have any ideas for using them up, (preferably with a vaguely dieting theme in mind). Thaks.

This link will tell you how to turn them into chutney. The only problem is that I'm not too sure what you should serve the chutney with! The recipe suggests roast ostrich but I've not seen many market stalls trying to get rid of short-dated ostriches at low prices! :-)

or perhaps a smoothie - or Sharon Tart? - see here:

Hoping something here helps,

Thanks Chris. As my cupboards are already full of home-made chutnut I guess it's going to be the smoothie, or stirred into porridge.
