Ingredients

25g brown sugar

15g unsalted butter, softened

4 nectarines (or peaches), halved and de-stoned

Sunflower oil, for brushing

Method

1
In a bowl, mix the brown sugar with the butter.
2
Lightly brush the cut sides of the fruit halves with the oil. Barbecue, or cook in a griddle pan, cut-side down, for 5 minutes.

Turn over, top with the butter mixture, then cook for another 4 minutes, until it melts into a rich sauce. (If using a barbecue, cook the butter mixture in a pan over the hob then drizzle over the nectarines).
