Luxurious and sweet, blueberry compote is a real treat on toast. Place 12oz (340g) of blueberries in a saucepan, add a couple of spoonfuls of sugar and add just enough water to cover. Bring to the boil, then add 1 tsp of cornflour (mixed together with the same amount of cold water) to the mix. Simmer on a low heat for five to 10 minutes or until thick and glossy. Top some toast with the blueberry compote and dust with icing sugar or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
