fried panettone with quinces, blood orange and marscapone

this is a cheeky christmas breakfast for the two of you to share before the day gets crazy

it just isn't christmas without a panettone. it's the poinsettia of baked goods!

traditionally sliced into wedges, it occurred to me that if you slice it into rounds, it fits perfectly into a skillet...

I had some quinces left over from the syrup that I'd made for my roast pork,

add a little butter (when does that ever hurt?)

and hey presto:

heat: some butter in a skillet and place a 1 inch round of panettone into the foaming butter. fry until golden brown on both sides

peel: and slice: a blood orange into segments

remove: any seeds or core from the cooked  quinces

arrange: the quinces and orange segments on top of the panettone and top with a dollop of marscapone or creme fraiche

serve: with quincy champagne cocktails
