Notes
If you don't have any lemon juice, use a teaspoon or two or Jamsetta or tartaric acid.
These days, the softer, sweeter dried apricots are the most available and good value, so recipe has been edited to allow for one packet of dried apricots which is 500g. I've kept the original amount of water and reduced the sugar.
