Step 3:
Depending on if you want soft peaches or firmer peaches will determine when you add the peaches to the syrup. For softer peaches, cook the peaches while the syrup thickens. For firmer peaches, only add them when the sauce has thickened and coats the back of the spoon.

- Coat the peach pieces in a batter made of flour, sugar, and spices before frying. This will help them stay together and get nice and crispy.
