To make the vanilla clementine syrup, combine the sugar, water and vanilla bean seeds or paste in a pot. Gently bring to the boil and do not stir. Allow the syrup to bubble up and thicken for 5 minutes. Drag a spoon through the bottom, like Moses parting the Red Sea – the spoon should leave a clear path behind it before the gap closes. Add the whole clementines and cinnamon stick and poach for 5 minutes.Serve with Greek yoghurt. |
