This homemade cherry pie filling recipe is perfect, quick and very easy to make. I have measured the main ingredients in grams to be very precise which will give you perfect result each time. This recipe calls for sweet cherries. If the cherries you are using are sour, then increase the amount of sugar by 50g keeping the measurements of other ingredients as it is.

Full Ingredient List
500g Sweet Cherries (fresh)
100g Sugar
2 pinches salt
1 Teaspoon lemon juice
1/8 cup (30 ml)Water
2 (10g) Tablespoon Corn Flour
4 Tablespoon water

Recipe
1. Wash and pit cherries.
2 Place the pitted cherries in a thick bottom pan along with water and sugar.
3. Switch on the flame and start cooking on medium heat.
4. Add salt.
5. Let it cook on medium heat for around 10 minutes.
6. The mixture will start bubbling and become foamy due to presence of sugar.
7. Keep cooking for 7-8 minutes more on medium heat. Give it a gentle stir from time to time.
8. The cherries will become soft.
9. Reduce the flame to low and make a slurry of corn flour and water. Mix well so that the slurry is lump free.
10. Add to the sauce and mix well.
11. With the flame on low just cook the sauce for 1 Minute more.
12. The sauce will thicken instantly. Do not overcook as the sauce thickens more as it cools down.
13. Switch off the flame. Add in the lemon juice and mix well.
14. Transfer to a sterilised jar once it cools down completely.

Notes
1. Do not leave the compote unattended after adding the corn starch slurry. It will stick to the bottom in no time creating lumps and ruining the texture.
2. Stir very gently while cooking the cherries so that they turn soft without ruining their shape.
3. Feel free to use this filling in cakes. pies, ice creams or cheesecakes.
4. The compote stays good in refrigerator for 15 days. I do not recommend storing beyond a fortnight as it is preservative free.
